Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to "about:accounts".
2. Click the "Using Sync on an older version of Nightly?" link at the bottom of the page.
Actual results:
The link currently works and redirects to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-sync-works-old-version-firefox?as=u&utm_source=inproduct but it loads the mozilla support page in the same tab, so I'm no longer on about:accounts.
Expected results:
add `target="_blank"` or something to the anchor tag so the Mozilla Support link opens in a new tab.

Incidentally, this is the link we're using for Android.

Should we switch?

I thought it was a feature :) John, can you confirm if this should replace about:accounts or open a new tab? Change is trivial if that's what is wanted.
