It's merely a new browsing context IIUC, not necessarily a new window (frame, 
tab, tile or whatever it's called this year). Someone that understands the 
codebase of a modern browser could even make the back button work, although he 
would have to restrict write access to the history stack or tree as well, for 
security reasons.
