Recently, HTML has added 'popovers' - which allow some of the machinery related to various kinds of popup ui to be natively supported. It is getting widely implemented now, but is still of a bit limited use without its corresponding partner CSS Anchor Positioning. Once we have that too, I expect use to really take off as it makes it easy to do lots of useful popover/popup stuff.
However, while he originally had intended it for everywhere, @mfreed7 was encouraged to focus on HTML first at least. The result is that that stuff is landed without similar support in MathML or SVG. At least for MathML-Core this seems like it would be very useful and worth moving up to HTMLOrForeignElement or something?
