See https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/interaction.html#transient-activation

This is done currently in the Chromium implementation:

  1. Anchors
  2. window.open

Should this also apply to window.attributionReporting.registerAttributionSource?

No, registerAttributionSource and the other APIs that trigger event sources shouldn't require activation, it would jeopardize the view-through use-case.
