As of today, we create
PageTarget
instances whenever we get async IPC from the content process. This, however, breaks an invariant
that
browserContext.pages
always has all pages (and browsing contexts - not to be confused with browser contexts), associated with browser context. This invariant will be especially important when we moveuser agent emulation to browser-side.
This patch makes
PageTarget
lifecycle symmetrical:PageTarget
instance is created when tab is openedPageTarget
is destroyed when tab is crashed or closedDrive-by: straighten viewport management and put a nice descriptive comment.
