spqchan@: Do you think you can get to this anytime soon? If not, perhaps we can reassign or adjust the priority.

Jochen - you know a lot about popups. Do you know if this is still an issue / suggest anyone who could look at this?

Adding some enamel folk as well.

+csharrison/avi to decide whether to WontFix or not

Sure
Given the Flash roadmap (https://www.chromium.org/flash-roadmap) and the fact that it requires affirmative user choice to run, WontFix is appropriate.
