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

Status in webapps-sprint:

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:

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)?
