Title:
On desktop, target="_blank" link should open new windows, not
background tabs
Status in Ubuntu UX:
Triaged
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
In webbrowser-app, when you share a web page using the "share buttons", you
get the wrong tab: you remain on the same tab instead being on the new tab.
You can reproduce the bug every time, e.g.:
1) open the link
http://arstechnica.com/science/2015/12/space-for-europe-and-for-all-humankind-a-brief-history-of-the-esa/
2) click on the "social button Twitter" (see attacchment "1")
3) the webbrowser-app opens a new tab, but you remain on the first one (see
"2")
4) if you click on the first tab, you refresh it so you can see the page (see
"3")
5) if you click on the second tab, you can see the right page, and you can
share the link (see "4")
Happens with webbrowser-app 0.23+15.10.20150929-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu
15.10 desktop and Ubuntu Phone OTA 8.5.
