           Summary: Add a target URL parameter to the createView and
                    createWindow method
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jnd at chromium.org

Now the Pop-up blocker loads popups but hides them.  This causes problems. So we want to switch Pop-up Blocker from "load but hide" to "don't load". Please refer to http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=38458 for more details
Also in chromium, we allow users to define some URL patterns to allow some sites to pop up windows.

To implement all above requests, we need to let client APIs know which URL a new window will start with. The way is to add a target URL parameter to the createView and createWindow method.

To avoid affecting other clients who reply on original syntax of createView and createWindow, I overload the createView and createWindow to provide additional functions to support the new targetURL parameter.
