This is the kind of site that caters to the web-saavy, e.g. people who are
likely to know how to right-click/control-click. So having that option on
this site in particular is more a whistling bell than a useful thing.

The problem with a 'global' pop-up setting is that you have to set it for
every site that has the option, and it doesn't take into consideration the
fact that one might want some links to open in a new window (links to other
sites for example) while wanting other links to remain in the parent window
(linking from the home page to some content for example)

Troodat.
