Device: Motorola Droid 2(Android 2.3)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Load http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest1.html.
2. When asked choose "Show" and wait for the popups to trigger.

Expected results:
The popups are opened in the background - the current behavior in XUL on Firefox 12 beta 4. 
Choosing "Show" instead of "Always Show" would indicate that most likely the user wants to see what the popup is but is not sure that he wants the content.

Actual results:
The popups are opened one by one in the active tab.
Adding UI/UX guys to see what they have to say.  I can see cases for both sides.

Should popups be opened in the foreground or background? (Thinking of use cases like WiFi popup sign-on, etc ...)
