Comment (by celloexpressions):

 I'd rather have the link open automatically than get a notice that it
 can't be previewed. Since you can't always tell whether a link is
 previewable or not, this would allow you to always flow to the link you
 wanted, with the new tab indicating that it isn't previewable directly
 rather than flowing through a warning.
