However it IS annoying if you don't have tabs enabled. Maybe we need a "target=_newtab" attribute for links? But in the meantime, would there be a way of detecting whether tabs are enabled and having separate behaviours? You could detect browser version (less than or equal to ie6 etc) but that doesn't get around the fact that you can switch off tabs in ie7 and firefox...
