Comment (by swissspidy):

 > Yep, the question here is whether Android Webview implies noopener when
 the target="_blank" attribute is present. Would be great if somebody can
 try to get more info on that, and which version(s) of Webview are
 affected.


 Well, caniuse.com still says no. And AFAIK Android WebView ≠ Chrome on
 Android, so https://chromestatus.com/feature/6140064063029248 does not
 affect Android WebView.

 Question is: do we specifically support this "browser"?
