We should look to make FrameLoadRequest a move-only type as it is largely used as a convenience object for passing information around that is needed to perform a load.

This came up in Daniel’s last patch too. We are always defining WebKit style live as a team. Some of us are preferring the brace syntax rather than the parentheses, specifically because the parentheses syntax silently allows certain type conversions that must be made explicit in the brace syntax. Because of that, I prefer braces almost any place we can use them, including here.

I think in general we wouldn’t want functions to take ownership of an object when they simply need to examine the object. Just as if something can take a const*, we want to use that instead of a non-const *.

See bug #173564, comment 14. We should bring this up on webkit-dev for discussion. >>> Source/WebKit2/WebProcess/WebCoreSupport/WebFrameLoaderClient.cpp:661 >>> + Page* newPage = webPage->corePage()->chrome().createWindow(*m_frame->coreFrame(), WTFMove(frameLoadRequest), { }, navigationAction); >> >> Will revert this change before landing.

I was wavering on having Chrome::createWindow() take a FrameLoadRequest&& (and hence inadvertently kept the WTFMove() I added in this line). I chose not to change the prototype of Chrome::createWindow() and have it continue to take a cont FrameLoadRequest& because this function does not perform an actual load and hence I do not see the need for it to take ownership of the FrameLoadRequest. Chrome::createWindow() passes the FrameLoadRequest, which represents the frame that requested the new window, to the embedding client should the embedding client wish to make use of this info when deciding whether to actually create the new window. It seems reasonable that the caller keeps ownership of the FrameLoadRequest in this case to do as they wish. For instance, when you use the context menu to open a hyperlink in a new window we ultimately call into <https://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Source/WebCore/page/ContextMenuController.cpp?rev=218649#L186> which uses the same FrameLoadRequest to ask the embedding client to create a new window and initiate a load in the new window if the embedding client created it.

I’m not sure that “some of us” and “I prefer” justifies saying this is “the policy”, but I would support making it official if there is some consensus we should move this way.
