[whatwg] two minor things in history traversal

6.11.9, step 3.1:
To me, this text:
"If the browsing context is a top-level browsing context
(and not an auxiliary browsing context)"
seems to imply that an auxiliary b-c is not a top-level b-c.
This is subjective of course, but it might be a good thing to
rephrase the sentence into something like:
"If the browsing context is a top-level browsing context
which is not an auxiliary browsing context"
or:
"If the browsing context is a top-level browsing context
(but not an auxiliary browsing context)"
Or, I guess it would also be possible to invent a new term
for "independent top-level browsing contexts" or something
in the same spirit.
6.11.9, step 3.1.2:
"The browsing context's browsing context name must be unset."
It might be good with a note that the browsing context name
is only switched by the user agent for history traversal to
another origin, and not for navigation to a new origin.
Best regards
