"Always open site in this Container" breaking common oauth workflows

[timon-michel-scopevisio]

Before submitting a bug report

• I updated to the latest version of Multi-Account Container and tested if I can reproduce the issue
• I searched for existing reports to see if it hasn't already been reported

Step to reproduce

1. Add example.com to the "Always open in this container" list
2. Open oauth-example.com in a window like this:

   window.open('https://oauth-example.com','authWindow', 
            'width=600,height=400,menubar=no,toolbar=no,status=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no'
   );

3. Have oauth-example.com redirect to example.com after it is done e.g. using

   window.location.href = "https://www.example.com";

(Real-World example, where i had the issue: If you include "https://admin.microsoft.com" in the list and then try adding an app there (Settings -> Integrated Apps), which requires you to consent to permissions)

Actual behavior

The Browser blocks the request, which is expected behaviour, but:

• The JS Code is unable to know that the redirect did not succeed
• The User does not know the redirect did not succeed
• The User cannot manually decide how the browser should handle the redirect

Expected behavior

The Browser should either redirect in the same tab or show an informational message to the user, similar to what happens if they use it in a regular tab
