1806020 - Create window without focus

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1253129

(WebExtensions :: Untriaged, enhancement)

Description

[mprops]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:108.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/108.0

Steps to reproduce:

When I create a window using an extension, I do this:

browser.windows.create({tabId: tab.id, focused: false})

'focused' is documented. But it doesn't seem to do any effect.

The new window is always raised.

I think this is what makes it unable for me to create a window and immediately move some tabs to it, because the extension is terminated.

So I have 2 questions.

1. What is focused supposed to do?
2. What's a way to create a window and move tabs to it, like a multiple detach? (from an extension)
