164233 - Indicate visually, that opening a new window was supressed (because of prefs)

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 148689

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Gunnar Klauberg]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530

I find the feature to disallow the opening of new windows (pop-ups/-unders) very
helpful, and I use it always! But some sites don't quite work without this
feature, and I might not even know this. 

Please think about a little "Signal" in the statusbar or near the url-field.
This should flash each time a new window should have opened, but didn't because
my prefs disallowed it. 

This Feature should be considered a usability enhancement, to problems with
sites using popups.

(A counter would be nice, too. But this is more like debugging)
