RemoteFrames aren't displayed properly in DevTools console

Project Member Reported by creis@chromium.org, Aug 31 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version: 61.0.3163.71, 62.0.3201.0
OS: Win10

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Visit http://csreis.github.io/tests/window-open.html
(2) Click "Open simple window"
(3) In DevTools, see the value of window.opener in the second tab.
(4) Navigate the second tab to http://www.chromium.org via the omnibox (cross-process).
(5) Now check the value of window.opener.

What is the expected result?

In both cases, the opener should look like:
> Window {frames: Window, postMessage: ƒ, blur: ƒ, focus: ƒ, close: ƒ, …}

What happens instead?
After the process swap, the opener looks like:
> undefined {window: , self: , location: Location, closed: false, frames: , …}

This affects OOPIFs as well (e.g., window.parent, frames[0]).

Not sure if there's a functionality problem due to this, or if it's just cosmetic.

Fixing labels.  Not sure it's urgent.

dgozman@, could you help triage this?  I'm not sure if it's indicative of a bigger problem or if it's just cosmetic.

It looks cosmetic to me, lowering priority.
Status: WontFix (was: Assigned)
This now looks like:

$ window.opener
$ > global {window: global, self: global, location: Location, closed: false, frames: global, …}

I think that's acceptable, so closing the issue.
