Fails to open webpage in the background

Reported by shiyangt...@gmail.com, Jun 20 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3464.2 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. You could test with Evergreen (https://ranchero.com/evergreen/);
2. Go to Preferences and check "open in background in browser";
3. Select one item from the default feeds and click the Safari icon at the top.

What is the expected behavior?
Other browsers opens the link in the background. No space-switching or focus-hijacking should happen.

What went wrong?
Chrome gets the focus and comes into foreground.

Did this work before? Yes 69.0.3451.0

Chrome version: 69.0.3464.2  Channel: dev
OS Version: OS X 10.13.5
Flash Version: 

This is almost exactly the same issue as  Issue 798739 , which I reported back in January.

OTOH, that change is breaking a bunch of tests (though I suspect this is more about the tests than anything), so feel free to load balance it away.

To ellyjones@ for load balancing
Three months later, this issue shows up again in Chromium 71.0.3560.0 without any flag. Dev channel Chrome 71.0.3554.0 is affected too. Seems to be another regression. 

 Issue 890971  has been merged into this issue.
This remains a significant issue for many Chrome users. Is someone working on an expeditious fix?
Echo sentiment of Comment 17

I continue to have to revert back to v 68 until this issue is fixed.
How do you revert back ?

This is the most annoying thing I've ever faced.

Seems like WIP and bug is valid, hence tagging with appropriate label.
