Hello
I can't remember if this question has been submitted on this list but I remember discussions with a strong opposition to this kind of pop-up system.
In my opinion, a pop-up feature is very interesting, for example in order to display a picture (or a text from Wikisource, a definition from the Wiktionary) without opening a new tab/window, or display help on a precise context. But how people can discover Wikimedia Commons (or another wiki) if the media is blocked on the pop-up ?

Hello,
This morning I was documenting on wikimedia API, and consulting [1] I
wanted to continue to read while playing the video. So what I wanted to
do was "pop up" the video out of the page, so I could scroll and read on
the left part of my screen, while watching the video at the right of my
screen.
But as far as I can say, there's no "pop up" function. Of course I can
open the video in a new window, etc, this is not a blocking bug.
What do you think?
