need to support "target" option on links

If I have a link with a target <a target="_blank" href=" .... "> to open a link in a new window/tab, it should open it in a new webview

We should also have a way for the user to decide if we should switch to the new view or not, like other browsers. Default should probably be "switch to the new one".

I'm marking this as a bug. It's pretty important we can do this. There must be a way that we can see a link with a "target" has been clicked, and handle it appropriately.

Heck, even if we DON'T open a new window, that's better than just silently ignoring it, which is what happens now.

We can definitely do this. Good issue for a VIP student to work on...
