Bug 273466 – Expose document.fragmentDirective (feature detection for text fragments)

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Scrolling

[Philip Jägenstedt]

Spec: https://wicg.github.io/scroll-to-text-fragment/#feature-detectability

The purpose of document.fragmentDirective is to be able to feature detect support for text fragments, but according to https://caniuse.com/url-scroll-to-text-fragment Safari 16.1 shipped support for text fragments, but in my testing of Safari 17.4 and searching WebKit source, the feature detection bit isn't implemented.

I've also filed https://github.com/WICG/scroll-to-text-fragment/issues/257 for discussion.

The https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/28784 PR doesn’t actually build yet — I’m getting a linking error with the bindings-generated code that I still need to sort out:
