           Summary: Remove showModalDialog
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

showModalDialog has been deprecated in the HTML spec and we would like to remove it: https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/374 and https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=26437.

The only modern user agents that support it are desktop Safari and desktop Firefox. (It has been completely removed from Chrome and Edge, and mobile Safari and mobile Firefox both do not support it.)

The corresponding Gecko bug is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=981796.
