#31373 — Suddenly needed: appendChild(form1)

1    var form1 = document.createElement("form");
2    form1.setAttribute("method", "post");
3    form1.setAttribute("action", "http://etc....");
4    form1.setAttribute("target", "myTargetWindow");
5    var hiddenField1 = document.createElement("input");
6    hiddenField1.setAttribute("type", "hidden");
7    hiddenField1.setAttribute("name", "data");
8    hiddenField1.setAttribute("value", myData);
9    form1.appendChild(hiddenField1);
10   //document.body.appendChild(form1); // not needed till sept 2016
11   form1.submit();

Using Chrome browser [54.0.2840.16 beta-m (64-bit) in W10] 
why is line 10 suddenly needed to get the submission out,
both in Shortcut manager and Tampermonkey?

Is this a bug or planned behavour?
