  I agree that personally I prefer it. If other media types like PDF or 
Word open in the main window, too often I lose the whole browser session 
when I close what appears to me to be a window from another application.

I was interested to read that I was not the only one:

So perhaps your chap will be impressed that Jakob N. agrees with you 
that this is the best way to do it

Cheers
