[Question] How to disable bringing page to front during launching.

Its Headful mode.

Currently I am doing web chat tests where I would like to test multiple context.

If I spawn new context it brings that page to front loosing the focus.

let browser = await firefox.launch()

// Every 1 minute open new context and open page just to test if chat shows history or not.
while(true) {
  let context = await browser.newContext()
  let page = await context.newPage();
  
  // delay code is there not shown here.

}

The issue is that newContext spawns a new window which has focus or something is in page that is calling page.bringToFront() when its launched.

Questions:

1. I would like to disable these behavior. If possible please let me know.
2. Is there anyway to minimize the context window after launch. If I need to bring page to front I think i can call page.bringToFront() at the moment.

Its not a new issue I think and there are no answers available afaik. https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/issues/5484 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53501564/hide-browser-in-puppeteer

I also experience this; its pretty annoying to have jest running with --watch while developing and have focus stolen away constantly by the playwright. It seems like it has to be possible to have an option to instruct playwright to open Chromium in the background, rather than foreground.
