 Replying to [comment:23 helen]:
 > I'm confused about what the issue at hand is - is it that iOS has
 limitations or is it that there's opposition to ever opening a link in a
 new window/tab?

 As a keyboard user I’m naturally against forced new windows. :)

 On the other hand, I might be biased, that’s why I want to read what other
 people with an accessibility focus have to say. Th iOS problem is
 secondary, but it should be tested, and the final solution should result
 in a ''predictable'' UX – for everyone.
