title: 'window.open' blocked by Chrome with change event
body: <p>I am trying to open a window based on an onChange event on a select element without getting blocked by Chrome's popup blocker.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is demonstrated here.</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://jsfiddle.net/yyfe0824/1/" rel="nofollow">https://jsfiddle.net/yyfe0824/1/</a></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;select class="dropdown-select" onChange="window.open('https://www.google.com');"&gt;
      &lt;option value="uno"&gt;Uno&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option value="dos"&gt;Dos&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option value="tres"&gt;Tres&lt;/option&gt;
  &lt;/select&gt;
  
  &lt;input type="button" onClick="window.open('https://www.google.com');" value="click me"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>There is no problem with a window.open call on the 'click me' button, but if you try to change the select dropdown, chrome will block the popup.</p>
  
  <p>So far, answers to this problem have been specific to the onClick event. Doing research reveals that Chrome will block popups if it detects that it is not user triggered via some sort of handler, so I'm specifically trying to call the function inline, rather than using another named function.</p>
  
  <p>Is this the intended behavior of window.open, specifically for onChange and if so, is there any particular workaround? (Aside from changing the structure to be a click event in the first place.)</p>
