Want to choose whether to open a link in the same window or a new window

In the new editor, all links open in a new window by default. This often isn't practical for us, so want the choice.

It is now possible to specify whether links open in the same window, or a new window, using the new toggle in the link toolbar. As always thanks for your input, and let us know any feedback you have!

planned
This is something we very much plan to bring back, so I'll move it to 'planned' now.
I can't confirm when it will be complete, but it's in the backlog now. You'll have the choice to open in the same tab or a new tab.
Thanks so much for all the input here 🥂

I'd also like to have a better interface for email links so we can add subject line and not have to remember the 'mailto:' prefix as well.

Please include this with the planned update

Best practice is to open in the same window (https://www.nngroup.com/articles/top-10-mistakes-web-design/ ) BUT there are definitely times when you want the option to open in a new one too (one of our business units absolutely needs this functionality).
