It is not a bug it is the intended behavior,  the decision to change the
behavior to open an overlay in all the highlighted situations does not
seem as obvious to me since the websites intent is slightly different in
the two cases.

A command line option might be a good intermediate solution until we
have a more definitive answer.

Title:
  [webapp-container] Outside links don't always open in overlay

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  New
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I made two webapps.  In one, outside links always open in a container
  overlay.  In the other, they open in the browser app.

  I *think* the only difference is that the overlay-webapp happens to
  use target=_blank for the links, while the browser-webapp doesn't.

  I personally think that both types of outside links should open in an
  overlay.  If you agree and this is simply a bug, let's fix it.

  If it's not a bug, can there be a commandline option to override this
  behavior (i.e. control whether outside links open in an overlay or
  not)?
