Hi!

Please add --new-window option to xdg-open to open URL in new tab window. This is useful to override default user configuration.

Thank you

I doubt we can support this, I'm not aware of any options or common-api for various browsers to control the behavior of opened links.

Please do correct me if I'm wrong.
