see http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/origin-0.html#sandboxed-automatic-features-browsing-context-flag according to Microsoft's test suite[1], webkit has not implemented this either the spec mentions autoplaying video and automatically focusing on a text box - Microsoft has also decided that refresh via <meta> should also be blocked in this case i'd like to fix these in a followup to the initial iframe sandbox work (bug 341604) landing, after discussion on whether we really want to do this and if so, which pieces of it (and if we can think of anything else we'd like to block that's an "automatic feature") [1] http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/ietestcenter/#html5Sandbox
Depends on: framesandbox
Whiteboard: [mentor=imelven lang=c++]
a note on <meta refresh> - Microsoft seem to consider it an 'automatic feature' also (http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/origin-0.html#sandboxed-automatic-features-browsing-context-flag) based on http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/ietestcenter/#html5Sandbox - Webkit seems to not block it fwiw
Summary: iframe sandbox's sandbox automatic features flag should block autoplay of video and autofocus → iframe sandbox's sandbox automatic features flag should block autoplay of video and autofocus and possibly meta refresh
