These are *both* to do with links in web pages. Neither apply to opening 
links in applications that are not web pages.

For the above cases, you can already right-click and choose whether to 
open in a new window, new tab, or left click and open in the current tab.

For that reason, I agree with the first article, that web sites (and 
that's what your user.js is trying to do!) should not attempt to force 
links to be opened in a certain way.

However, I'm not even talking about that ;-)

What I'm looking for is a way to configure Chrome so that links opened 
from *other applications* *NOT links in web pages* get opened in a new 
window.

cheers,

Chris
