Window names are fraught #3

Description

@domenic

It's not clear whether this proposal's use of name is intended to be related to window.name, and all the window named targeting mechanisms.

If so, then that is a danger zone. name can be used for strange things (like seemingly-disconnected windows controlling each other via window.open(url, name)), and as an often-overlooked communication channel.

If the intention is to create something different, then reusing the name name is confusing.
