Comment:

 This is not actually a duplicate of #35239. The bug reported is that it's
 not possible to use `ctrl`/`cmd` click to open a link in an embed in a new
 tab.

 This behaviour can be seen in the 4.7 field guide post at
 https://make.wordpress.org/core/2016/12/05/wordpress-4-7-field-guide/
 where the bug was also reported in the comments.
