The spec doesn't mention the case of prompts spawned in onload specifically, but when waiting for navigations to complete it says:

6. Wait for the the current browsing context’s document readiness state to reach readiness target, or for the session page load timeout to pass, whichever occurs sooner.

7. If the previous step completed by the session page load timeout being reached and the browser does not have an active user prompt, return error with error code timeout.

So, according to the spec we should wait for the timeout to happen and only report timeout error if there isn't a prompt. In case of normal page load strategy we know it's going to timeout, so I don't think it makes sense to wait, note that the default timeout is 5 minutes! The spec doesn't say we should report unexpected alert in this case, though. So, maybe we can just return without error, because the next command will try to handle prompts anyway.
