User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0 Build ID: 20170926190823 Steps to reproduce: When a popup or tab is created with browser.windows.create() or browser.tabs.create() which load a page from the extension then a history entry is created. Actual results: A history entry is created which allows the user to navigate to a page from the extension. This is unlikely to ever work. Expected results: Either never create a history entry for a page from an extension or have a flag to the create() function to control whether a history entry is created.
