I have an email with several attached emails. It is open in a tab.  When I double click any of the attached emails, they open in a new window.  I expected them to open in a tab like the parent.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an email with attached emails in a new tab
2. Double click one or right click->open one of the attachments

Actual Results:  
The attached email opens in a new window

Expected Results:  
The attached email opens in a new tab

(more specifically, it should probably copy the layout of the parent, tab or window).
