Steps to reproduce:
Pre-requisite: Install a Service Worker.
- Open a tab of your web app
- Change the URL by history.push() or history.replace().
- From the Service Worker, run (I'm actually running it on 'notificationclick' event):
a. const clients = self.clients.matchAll({ type: 'window', includeUncontrolled: true });
Actual results:
You will find a client and "clients[0].url" will have a stale URL, which is the one when you landed on the tab, but it will never update when you navigate with history.push() or history.replace().
Expected results:
clients[0].url should update when navigating on the web app which is a Service Worker WindowClient. So client.url should be up to date when requesting self.clients.matchAll().
This is used to focus to existing tab or open a new one on notification click.

The client URL is specified to be the creation URL as defined in the HTML spec, noting that there are implementation consistency issues as documented at https://github.com/w3c/ServiceWorker/issues/1515 and that the general use-case you're describing for being able to reuse open tabs also has some discussion at https://github.com/w3c/ServiceWorker/issues/1475 as once can imagine there's also potentially relevant state that may not be fully represented in the URI.
