 We've come a long with Wordpress but doing a simple thing today on 2 blog
 posts I realised how cumbersome some features of the editor are.

 It takes 5 clicks to update one hyperlink in an article to set it to "Open
 in New Tab". It was very counter productive having to do this on about 15
 hyperlinks per article.

 I'd love to see this speeded up in a future version.
