I'm a big fan of the tabbed feature, but I wish that I had the following option:
When a link from a web page opens to a new window (using the target= feature)
that it would instead open to a new tab.
I like to keep all pages related to a site together, so this feature would allow
this (sometimes annoying behaviour) to fit my browsing preference. An option
(off by default) in the preferences menu to turn this on would be great, but I
would settle for a line in the config file.

The pref exists but the backend is not yet implemented
