[webapp-container] Outside links don't always open in overlay

Bug description:
I made two webapps. In one, outside links always open in a container
overlay. In the other, they open in the browser app.
I *think* the only difference is that the overlay-webapp happens to
use target=_blank for the links, while the browser-webapp doesn't.
I personally think that both types of outside links should open in an
overlay. If you agree and this is simply a bug, let's fix it.
If it's not a bug, can there be a commandline option to override this
behavior (i.e. control whether outside links open in an overlay or
not)?
