Description

Although #313 obfuscates this somewhat, name targeting happens within a browsing context group. However, it's also that case that using Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy should give you a fresh name (empty string). In combination this means that name should not have moved to navigable.

There's existing tests around COOP for this. Did you end up testing the opposite somewhere?
