With > background false (the default) the new context must be visible and focused when the command returns; with > background true it must be created without taking focus, leaving the current context visible. On the GLib > ports the new page is never activated because the automation client does not implement > requestSwitchToPage (bug 288324), which also keeps browsingContext.activate a no-op. A tab created with a > referenceContext should also open in the reference's window, after it, rather than wherever the embedder puts it. > Covered by WPT browsing_context/create/background.py (all six rows) and browsing_context/create/type.py > (test_type[tab] and test_type[window], which check that the original tab is hidden and unfocused after a tab is > created and that the original window stays visible but unfocused after a window is created). On GTK the two > window rows of background.py pass only by accident of Xvfb focus.
