Comment:

 > The opening in a new tab is actually a bug that needs to be resolved in
 the MediaUpload component of Gutenberg.

 @antpb I'm not fully sure, because the media modal can be used with
 various "frames" also in core. When the used frame is not the "post" one,
 the logic required to load the edit image state inside the modal is
 missing as well.

 For example, if I'm not wrong, the Customizer uses the "select" frame
 which lacks that logic. This is a core bug and needs to be fixed in the
 media views.

 Also, it's pretty common for plugins to use the "select" frame.
