 Inline linking is a nice new feature, but I think it would make sense if
 we would have "Open link in a new tab" embedded into it as well. Open link
 in a new tab is a very common request, especially when talking about
 external links as website owners don't want the visitors leave their
 website.

 Without "Open link in a new tab" implemented into Inline Linking, I find
 Inline Linking a bit unnecessary because one must click on Link options
 again, actually prompting us to do the same action twice in comparison
 with how it was like before Inline Linking was introduced.

 I am attaching an example of where we could add "Open link in a new tab"
 button.
