So what argument should I give to my clients not to use target="_blank" ? If I say that won't validate your page, they won't care. So any non-technical argument that I can give to them?

The best non-technical argument I can think of is that this approach "breaks the back button." Jakob Nielson argues against doing this over and over again. Opening a new window, particularly if the look and feel are similar, can be very confusing to your site visitors.
