Feature Proposal: I want to enforce the opening of an new browser window

Motivation

I experienced in TWiki 4.1 and earlier - maybe due to the existance of a plugin like NatSkinPlugin or such - a feature%2C that a link in the form %5B%5B link %5D%5B display text%5D%5Bname%3A_blank%5D%5D would create a new browser window. This feature I use in several TWiki installations. Unfortunately in a plain TWiki 4.3.0 rc1 or Foswiki 1.0.0 this feature is gone.

Description and Documentation

Offer a method to parameterize a link syntax to enforce a new browser window.

With pattern skin, if you add css class foswikiPopUp to a link, it will open a popup with template viewplain.

This is now implemented as jquery plugin POPUPWINDOW.
