Funcions `loadOneTab` and `loadURI` in 2023 in Firefox Experimental API?
I am using the Experimental API in my private Firefox extension.
So far, I've been using Firefox 102 ESR, but I'm planning to switch to Firefox ESR 115. There's already a Firefox 115 Beta available, so I've started testing it with my private extension.
So far, I've been using internal Firefox functions like `loadOneTab` and `loadURI` and it worked very well.
I used the `loadOneTab` function like this:
``` const placesURL = "chrome://browser/content/places/places.xhtml"; window.gBrowser.loadOneTab( placesURL, { inBackground: false, allowThirdPartyFixup : true, relatedToCurrent : true, triggeringPrincipal : services.scriptSecurityManager.getSystemPrincipal() } ); ```
But the `loadOneTab` function no longer exists at all in Firefox's internal API. What should I replace it with?
I found the function `_createTab`:
``` // window.gBrowser._createTab({ uriString: placesURL }); ```
But the `_createTab` function returns an error:
``` Uncaught Error: UserInteraction with id "browser.tabs.opening" was not initialized ```
...I guess this is by security to make this function called only by user action? And I call this function inside `async function`.
Is it somehow possible to open a new tab from the Experimental API in Firefox 115 beta? I need this very badly. Really very much.

I used the `loadURI` function like this:
``` window.gBrowser.selectedBrowser.loadURI(linkGo, {triggeringPrincipal: Services.scriptSecurityManager.getSystemPrincipal()}); ```
The `loadURI` function appears to still be available in Firefox's internal API, but returns an error like this:
``` TypeError: 'uri' member of CancelContentJSOptions is not an object. RemoteWebNavigation.sys.mjs:28:41 ```
How to overcome this error?
