In http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/65964 a UserGestureIndicator was introduced in chromium's webkit layer for all input events (later restricted to a subset of input events such as clicks). But even with the restriction, this still creates two consumable gestures (there's also one in WebCore/page/EventHandler for mouse events.

I guess initially this was supposed to protect against opening multiple windows from a single user gesture (chrome consumes a user gesture for each new window), however, now a web page can open two windows per event
