true... but the about:config is not quite good enough...
(read first... then comment... )

browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction

Possible values and their effects
[edit]
0

Divert all links according to browser.link.open_newwindow. (Default in Firefox 1.0.x and SeaMonkey)

This includes:

* All HTML links with target="_blank".
* All JavaScript calls to window.open().

[edit]
1

Do not divert any links (browser.link.open_newwindow will have no effect).
[edit]
2

Divert all links according to browser.link.open_newwindow, unless the new window specifies how it should be displayed. (Default in Firefox 1.5 and later and Camino 1.5)

This includes:

* All links with target="_blank".
* JavaScript calls to window.open() without the "features" parameter (3rd parameter).

This does not include:

* JavaScript calls to window.open() <u>with the "features" parameter</u> (3rd parameter).

I don't know why nobody thought of this before! It's incredibly useful, and it's just one line of code. You can't get much more elegant than that :)

10 / 10, definitely.
