When you double click a popup window link two windows are opened with the same
window.name.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a popup window link
2.Double click it.
3.The window names of both the windows that popup are the same.
Actual Results:
The window names of both the windows that popup are the same.
Expected Results:
Only one window should popup with a given window name.
I'm no expert, but I would think this could be exploited as a security risk.
Can't think of how off the top of my head, but two windows with the same name,
seems like the borwser could get confused and open up holes.

What exactly are you talking about when you say "popup window link"? To not open
another window when a user clicks twice on a link would be completely bogus,
although, I don't see how you can accomplish this since clicking a link
immediately opens it and focuses the new window...
Check out the link below. Double click the link on the page. Two windows
should open. Does on every machine I've tried. Both windows have the same
window name. You should not be able to have two windows with the same name.
Opening another windwo with the same name as an existing windows should just
refresh the existing window. Which is what firefox and every other browser
does, except that you can create two windows with the same name by double
clicking a popup window link.
