By that logic, _blank should open in Browser and non-blank should be in an overlay, right? Since an "in browser view" is closest to an overlay. But that's the opposite of what happens today.
As a webapp author, I don't have control of which the web site uses though. In my concrete case, I have a webapp for theoldreader.com (an RSS feed reader, which always uses _blank) and one for m.reddit.com (reddit, which doesn't use _blank). But in both cases, I believe an overlay is the best experience. Switching to the Browser is a huge context switch. And temporary page views (as happens with RSS and reddit) tend to leave lots of tabs left over in Browser. So at least as a webapp author, I'd like the option to enable overlays for non-_blank links. But let's hear from Design too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1548575 Title: [webapp-container] Outside links don't always open in overlay To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1548575/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
