Bug 1509250 is the last bug that I know of blocking this work. I had a patch for that1, but it was failing some tests and I never got back around to finishing it off. I think part of the problem was that if a new window was being opened at some URI X, my patch made us do a process flip, when what we should have done was plumb the URI X through to the chunk of the browser code that sets the initial tab's process type, and make sure it chooses the right one.

Is this blocking you?

Nope, it's just currently marked for fission-M2, so I wanted to know if progress was being made on it :-)
