> Pop-unders (if I understand correctly) are generally created by first opening a window, and then calling window.blur on the newly created window or window.focus on a different window to ensure that the new window is behind the frontmost window (or tab).

> If the goal is to prevent pop-unders, then perhaps instead of restricting window open, we should restrict changes to the stacking order for newly created windows. This would turn pop-unders into pop-ups, so at least users would know which site caused the problem. I am not sure if that would break any of the mentioned sites.

I changed that a while ago. window.blur() is now essentially a no-op, and window.focus() is very restricted (you can only focus a window you have opened when running within the context of the opening window). This matches Firefox' behavior.
