Hmm, I wonder what would happen if I did that- Angular already actually
redefines A. Would my change override theirs? Hard to say.
Anyway I just ended up creating a directive that wrapped a <div
ng-bind-html> in the template, put a watch on the bound-html value, and
used element.find('a').attr('target', '_blank'). Seems to work. Maybe this
is one of those times when using jqLite isn't against the rules.
