Attachment: logcat_20141119_1042.txt

Description:
After the user selects an app to view in the Marketplace there is an option to hit the back button. If the back button is pressed and held there will be the option to view the link on another page. If this option is selected the user will be taken to a blank page with a small "x" to the top left of the page. 


Repro Steps:
1) Update a Flame device to BuildID: 20141119001205
2) Launch Marketplace app.
3) Select any app for additional info.
4) Press and hold back button.
5) Open link in new tab.
  
Actual:
User is taken to a blank page with a small "x" at the top left.
  
Expected: 
It is expected that the user will be able to open a link in a new tab, or that this option would be disabled.

[Blocking Requested - why for this release]:

This issue does not occur on Master. The pages look as expected so nominating this 2.1?

Not a common use case and low user impact.

I thought this bug was already filed but I can't find the dupe.  Moving to Firefox OS product as I don't think this is a Marketplace setting (and also that it only occurs on 2.1).  If Marketplace is able to disable this option please let us know how.
