If the info page about new dedicated profiles is loaded as chrome://browser/content/newInstallPage.html and not as about:newinstall, its links will open blank tabs. Removing rel="noopener" fixes it. Calling window.opener then returns the null object.

In comparison about:crashes / chrome://global/content/crashes.xhtml has the links to show crash reports working for both addresses.

This page is not intended to be opened that way.
