You're "dead wrong", to use your expession.
I just double checked and none of Thunderbird, Pidgin or Skype have
"Open in new window" as a right-click option for urls...

Again, wrong. All the application does is ask the operating system
(windows in this case) to open the url. The OS hands the url to Chrome,
it's then up to Chrome what is done with it.

No, I'm saying an option that would make chrome do things all web page
authors aren't expecting would be bad. Read closely...
