Opera store: "Doesn't seem to block pop-ups"

[gorhill]

I am not aware of any problem with uBlock not being able to block unwanted popups.

If any of the reviewers read this, please give me a specific case where this happens. I can't look into and fix things with a specific scenario on how to reproduce the problem.

[gorhill]

The popup in #58 is still properly foiled, so I need a specific case where it is not working.

[gorhill]

I could reproduce on Opera 24 (I had tested with Chromium, I didn't expect a difference with Opera): http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x.

Investigating.

I see... In Opera, unlike Chromium/Chrome, there is no referer HTTP header. I have to find out why.

I get this in Chromium (does block popup) for the above link, until I reach the player which can be played:

referee="http://playhd.eu/alabala.html"
    referrer="http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x" traffic.js:166
referee="http://playhd.eu/alabala.html"
    referrer="" traffic.js:166
referee="http://playhd.eu/jiji.html"
    referrer="http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x" traffic.js:166
referee="http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x"
    referrer="http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x" traffic.js:166
referee="http://playhd.eu/jiji.html"
    referrer="http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x" traffic.js:166
referee="http://playhd.eu/alabala.html"
    referrer="http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x" 

And this is Opera (doesn't block popup):

referee="http://playhd.eu/alabala.html"
    referrer="http://playhd.eu/9zkcjejdcr6x" traffic.js:166
referee="http://playhd.eu/jiji.html"
    referrer="" traffic.js:166
referee=[ad ridden popup page]
    referrer="http://playhd.eu/jiji.html" traffic.js:166
referee=etc

Looks like I might have to implement a fallback mechanism for Opera: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/webNavigation#event-onCreatedNavigationTarget.

Works handsomely, and as an extra, this also solves #91.
