1770834 - Feature request: add a notification for JS window.close() attempt

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, enhancement)

Description

[Christian Lampe]

Attachment: A screenshot (sorry, it's in Swedish) and a JS code example.

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:100.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/100.0

Steps to reproduce:

issue window.close(); in console

Actual results:

Nothing, except a console warning that scripts may only close windows they have created.

Expected results:

Everything behaves as programmed, but what I would like is a popup (like the Ctrl+Q popup, if turned on) that asks if the script is allowed to close the current tab. What could also be nice: that it straight-out closes the tab if issued by an onClick EventHandler within 2000ms of the click.
