Am I the only one who hates all those links that open in a new browser window? There seem to be more and more of them.

My browser does have a Back button, "Back" navigation via keyboard shortcuts, and a History window. Furthermore, I can manually choose to open a link in a new window, or a new tab, in foreground or background, if I prefer to keep the current page open.

So many powerful choices that let me decide what's happening on my screen. And yet, so many annoying pages that refuse to disappear from my screen when I'm trying to surf away. (And no visualization that would allow me to see which target this link will open in.)

Yes, I know that "target" can make sense - especially if it's a web application rather than a website, or if you'd like to open a preview/details window and not lose the current context. But for plain old hypertext links from a page to another page, this does not apply.

Mozilla does a great job in blocking unrequested popups. Maybe they could add an option to block unrequested new windows as well?
