This does NOT happen when Shift-clicking a link or right-clicking and choosing "Open Link in New Window".  It's only a problem with links hard-coded to open in a new window.  This is also reproducible if you open the Add-ons Manager, go to "Get Add-ons", and click the "See all" link next to "Top Add-ons" or "Featured Personas".
