New variant of "open links in new tabs" setting to apply to links inside the text of comments, topics, and messages

Tags: changelog

Following up on his original addition of "open links in new tabs", @what has added another sub-option to it, which will make it so that external links in the text of comments, topic, and messages will be opened in new tabs by default.

This can be enabled on the Settings page, and I enabled it by default for everyone that has the setting enabled for topic links.

    Not sure if that was based off of my request or not, but that was quick! Thanks guys!

    Major kudos. This was one of my most wanted features. I'm a "new tab for everything" user, so it's great to see I can now have that behavior here. Thanks, @what.
