enable pop-up windows about kiosk HOT 10 CLOSED

New branch has been created with initial work on pop-up windows: https://github.com/zebradog/kiosk/tree/popup

These can be fairly complex, so likely we'll add support for simple dialogs prior to new windows or tabs: #52

Looks like this could be done via the manifest: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/contentSettings#property-popups we'll try and get it pushed into our next version.

Any movement on this? Pages with a "Sign In with Google" button won't work because the pop-up doesn't pop-up. I tried adding "contentSettings.popups", to the manifest, but no luck.

@xd1936 Not yet. It hasn't been an issue on any of our billable projects so it keeps getting bumped down in the queue.

What is an overview of the changes that would need to be made? Is it just a manifest thing?

from kiosk.

The manifest update suggestion above is probably not applicable. Likely it would need to be handled by an event listener, as suggested here: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!msg/chromium-apps/zzGLSiyWCnM/dMBcPBW2BUcJ

similar to how we handle permission requests for webcam/mic: https://github.com/zebradog/kiosk/blob/master/src/js/browser.js#L159

@matt-cook This is great news! All I need is support for Google sign-in buttons, which cause a pop-up window to open and ask the user to log-in.

I checked out the popups branch and tested it out, and Google sign-in buttons launch the sign-in screen perfectly, in full screen. After the user logs in, however, the pop-up does not go away and close itself, leaving the user with a blank full-screen window.

@xd1936 does the latest version 5.8.0 work for you? I've added support for new windows.
