Don't reopen during POSTs. #1205
Conversation
This can happen, for example, when something loads a file:// URL, that then has static form data and javascript to immediately submit it. We then turn the POST with data in the default container into a GET with no data in the target container. That doesn't work very well. As such, let's just refuse to reopen a tab in a new container during a POST, we can't bring the data with us (that I've figured out how to do anyhow).

Thank you! |
I think, in this case it would be better to just handle only GET method (to avoid possible issues with other non-GET requests): dd44210 |
I agree, however I'm going to strongly suggest that we still Otherwise, I believe, we may end up reopening in a new container on the next GET in the window. Which doesn't sound bad, until the site that you're POSTing to sets cookies based on the POST data. |
Oops, forgot about that. Thanks for noticing this. |

No worries, I had a few... Missteps while figuring out what was going on. :) |

This was the actual problem that had me originally open #1200 .
