But as you've already pointed out, browsers can offer users who never want to have links automatically open anywhere than the current window, so webpages' hints are completely ignored anyway. Similarly for those users who want tabs instead of windows, or always want new tabs on all links, or always want new pages for off-domain links, or ... So target (except for frames within a page) is only relevant for users who like some things to open in new windows, and trust webpages to offer hints on which links are appropriate for this. As such, the views of people who never want new windows don't need to be taken into account here -- because they won't be affected whatever happens! Smylers
