Hi Mari, Wouldn't this result in too many tabs opening up as there will be a new tab opening whenever a users clicks on a link.
With how it is now, if a user wants to view the linked section in a new tab, they can always right click and then click *Open Link in New Tab*/*Open Link in New Window* right. So do you think we really need this? Thank you.
