Assessment
This issue has not been assessed yet.
Description
Right now, getTools() retrieves tools from all documents underneath one's traversable navigable, i.e., top-level frame tree. This excludes tools from openers and opened documents, i.e., other documents in the browsing context group, and it probably shouldn't. Within a given browsing context group, we should probably collect tools from all top-level browsing contexts, including auxiliary top browsing contexts.
