Midori doesn't do javascript window.close()

[jan Pasi]

Midori 0.4.3 doesn't seem to do window.close(), upon clicking a button with window.close() nothing happens.

I can confirm this in 0.5.11

Also to note, the correct behaviour among mainstream browsers is: windows can be closed by javascript only if they were open by javascript.

In addition to that firefox (at least) provides option in about:config to allow window.close() to operate on any window. This is extemely helpful in userscripts, so a togglable options like this would be a nice addition.

Open new popup windows with javascript, then use the window.close() - website gets closed but popup window is still open!
Firefox and Chrome would close the window not only the website.
