Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When I create a link formatted in markdown, link open in the current tab

Describe the solution you'd like I would like open link in new tab

Additional context It"'s seem Markdown dosn't allow open link in new tab. HTML allow this, or somme people dev some js library to do that https://www.eddymens.com/blog/how-to-make-a-markdown-link-open-in-another-tab

@susnux is anything like this already implemented in Text? I think we shouldn't add anything new but perhaps have some common base across the other apps.

As a workaround, every user can of course just manually open the link in another tab (middle click, long tap, context menu)

Hello, In fact I can click middle but this function was not user friendly for non initiate :)

Text uses custom link handling, meaning e.g. links to photos on the instance etc are just opened in the viewer.

and for an external link ?

I see other apps in Nextcloud like "Notes" has target="_blank" as default when adding a link in the text. This would be very user friendly to have in "Forms" as well as it doesn't take people away from the form when referring to a link in description of a question...
