I open a new tab (but not window) for links, so that functionality in general links would subtract functionality for me.
I have no opinion on the threadsuck issue.
Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

Hey. New board.
If you middle-click a link designed to open in a new window, it will still open in a new tab rather than a new window. So if it was implemented, opening links in a new tab would work exactly the same.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I generally open links in the same window I'm in, because I prefer using the back button to having a bunch of windows and tabs floating around. When I want something in a different tab or different window, I open it that way, and I generally find it annoying when something automatically opens in another window.. Making it automatically in a different window would also subract functionality for me.

I'm using a laptop, and also have no middle button.

Our wings are not tired
I just right click or cntrl-click and choose new tab.
New window would drive me bugfuck, too much like popups.

I agree with that for in-thread links, but on the threadsuck page I'd prefer it automatically go to a new window.

Middle click, command click, whatever. I middle click on my desktop and command click on my laptop. (I love both my Macs.)
I also would only want it on the threadsucks, as well.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Yep, and besides what was already mentioned, there's also click and hold on a link for the menu to drop down...
