This will open up to Stalag '99 in a new window, with no help of a TARGET
option to the <A> tag.

Indeed. See http://home.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/2.0/relnotes/demo/target.html
for a description of Window-target.
"Window-target: whatever" does not do the same thing as <base
target="whatever">. Instead it retargets the _current_ load the the window
named "whatever". Or, rather, that would be the correct behavior...
The problem is in the HTML content sink, but this is a general architectural
problem... Over to docshell, since most of the targeting I can find happens
there, but punt as needed to whoever should actually be working on this...

The 'Window-Target' header should be *ignored* if it is incountered inside of a
<META HTTP-EQUIV ...> tag.
Our current architecture does not allow us to retarget a page load AFTER the
content has been partially consumed by the content sink.
