Why does GMail need to use window.open()? Surely the right way to expose a

I can't speak for Gmail, but Google Reader uses window.open since it allows
"unrelated" links to be opened in response to a key event (the "v" keyboard
shortcut).
In most UAs this is also possible to do with a click() on the HTML <a>,
no? In the ones in which it's _not_ possible that way, they should add
it, perhaps?
