javascript URL navigations do not check ongoing navigation status #12075

What is the issue with the HTML Standard?

https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/browsing-the-web.html#navigate-to-a-javascript:-url sets the ongoing navigation to null, but it should check it and abort first. This behaviour is tested by /html/semantics/forms/form-submission-0/jsurl-navigation-then-form-submit.html and all browsers pass it. The test explicitly calls out that this is not actually specified anywhere: https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt/blob/3b90ad8e89ee7e99fd10e7623628ed037f71f64d/html/semantics/forms/form-submission-0/jsurl-navigation-then-form-submit.html#L5
