1640864 - [UX] A warning should also be displayed when focusing a different browser window, just like when switching tabs

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: Site Permissions, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Daniel Bodea [:danibodea]]

Note

• When the user is engaged in an audio/video conference, he shares an entire screen and switches to a different browser window, a warning should be displayed just like the one displayed when switching tabs.

Affected versions

• nightly v78.0a1
• beta v77.0b9

Affected platforms

• All

Steps to reproduce

1. The user engages in an audio/video conference.
2. Open a few random tabs in this window.
3. Open a different window with a few random tabs.
4. Shares an entire screen.
5. Switches to another tab.
   Observe: The tab is focused; the tab-switch-warning is not displayed (as designed).
6. Click on yet another previously opened tab.
   Observe: The tab-switch-warning is displayed.
7. Focus the other browser window.

Expected result

• A warning should be displayed.

Actual result

• The other browser window is instantly focused and shown to the other call participants.

Regression range

• This is a feature design issue. It feels like this feature is missing for the feature to be complete.
• It is also reproducing on alder versions as the tab-switch-warning is a new implementation.
• This is reproduced with any webrtc web-app.
