Summary chrome.tabs.create in existing window behaves incorrectly

When using chrome.windows.getAll to get a list of all windows. On iOS, you get two windows, 1 normal and 1 private. Say the current tab is a non private window. And you then try to open a window in private in the extension. It opens kinda a ghost private window which hosts inside the non-private window. Correct behaviour is that it simply opens that tab in the only private window possible. See attachments for a sample extension and reproduction video.

Thank you for the report! This is most likely a Safari issue, but I'll let Tim close the report as appropriate. rdar://83529900
