Comment (by HoboPrimate):

 Replying to [comment:11 Eben]:
 > [snip]  We either need to bite the bullet and let new windows float on
 top, or simply load ''wanted'' (eg. explicitly called for via shortcut)
 popups into the document, replacing the page that spawned it (as though it
 were just a normal link).  I think the latter is my preference.

 I agree with having the 2nd option (and blocking unclicked pop-ups, with
 some warning when it does like firefox does right now).
 In the future, though, there should be some way to "open link in a new
 browser" kind of functionality. Or perhaps bookmarks will take care of
 that.
