fireEvent() is a GWT-ism, it does not dispatch an event to the element;
there's absolutely no event going on in the browser with fireEvent.
First, you should use an AnchorElement which is lighter-weight than an
Anchor widget, then simply use JSNI to call the click() method (or, without
JSNI: cast() to a ButtonElement)

You cannot force opening in a new tab or window, it all depends on the
browser's configuration. In other words, it's at the user's discretion, and
should stay that way (you'll find numerous discussions at the WHATWG or W3C
HTML WG when people proposed adding a new _blankTab or similarly-named
token, or new attributes on <a> to ask for a new tab rather than window, or
control this through CSS, etc.)
