Comment(by azaozz):

 I would suggest for everybody (3-4 people?) that want this changed to do
 their own mini UX research applying the 80/20 rule (don't forget you are
 the researcher not the subject of the research).

 There are five status messages that include a link:

  * Post updated
  * Post published
  * Post submitted
  * Post scheduled for
  * Post draft updated

 1. Should they open in the same window?

 2. Should they open in a new window?

 3. Should they be inconsistent (some in the same/some in new) and why?

 Personally I don't mind either way as I don't seem to use that link at
 all. I use the View Post button as it's a bit closer and requires less
 mousing to get to.
