This should be standardized first, then we should likely write WPTs if not already added.

WIP. Seems kind of hackish but not sure where/how else is best?
Should likely write WPTs for this too.

Note to myself:
we meed to handle the case where the submit target is _blank, which also opens a new window. For example:

<form target=_blank><input><button>Submit></button></form>

User activation should be checked and consumed when the form is submitted, whether by clicking the submit button or by calling submit() via script.
