Comment:
See https://core.trac.wordpress.org/query?keywords=~target-blank for
related tickets. Blessed task: #23432.
There's an ongoing effort to remove from core as many `target="_blank"`
attributes as possible. For example, the ones in the Help tabs have been
removed. Many are still to address.
Only in rare cases a `target="_blank"` attribute might make sense. In most
of the cases, we should just stop taking control of users' browsers :)
