expected: mozilla.org should have opened in a new tab.
We should check what the spec says about this.

Summary: clicking on notifications when spawning parent tab is closed fails to launch URL → clicking on web notification when spawning parent tab is closed fails to launch URL
It's possible that Catalin's patch for openWindow() in a SW will fix this.
Maybe not for notifications created outside of service workers though. There are 3 contexts in the DOM code that can create notifications: regular page context, web workers, and service workers.
