There are a million and one reasons why links should not open in a new window link targets
TL;DR: Regardless of what accessibility conformance level you target, do not arbitrarily open links in a new window or tab. If you are required to do so anyway, inform users in text.
We are currently visually indicating this but we are not indicating it to screen readers and here in joomla_update we indicated it visually twice.
This PR changes that and will now add a "title=open LINKNAME in new window" to the web links and title =download LINKNAME in new window.
You might think that screen readers were intelligent enough to recognise a target=_blank and say something to the user but they don't powermapper results
