This could be an enhancement.
Some Webpages have a lot of links in their webside who wants to open in a new
window. If youre using tabbed browsing, it is annoying if you have a lot of open
windows - so sometimes I close this new window and open it again in a tab.
Open every link in a tab is also annoying, because if you do not need the "old"
browser window anymore you open a the new one and close the old one.
So my suggestion:
It would be nice to see if the link wants to open a new window by hover over the
link. Maybe you can add a kind of toolbar that appears if you hover over a link
(like the toolbar in IE by hovering over images) where you can select:
"Open Link in new Tab"
"Force Link to open in this Window"
"Open Link in new Window"
and where you can see a small icon, which repesentates the normal behavior for
this link.
If you click on the link itself, it would use the normal behavior of the link.

Sascha
