Comment:

 I'll consider this a duplicate of #37941, which proposed editing //any//
 links using `target="_blank"` that did not already have `noopener`.

 Those four post preview links in `edit-form-advanced.php` hopefully would
 be safe even with an old, unsupported browser because their linked pages
 are on the same site.
