Ability to set whether links open in new tab

What is the challenge?

By default, all links in a dashboard open in a new tab in your browser.

What is the impact?

This means it is hard to use a dashboard to build sophisticated 'in-page navigation'. Instead, all links open new tabs, which can quickly get confusing and degrade user experience for customers not experienced in Aha!.

Describe your idea

When adding a hyperlink in a dashboard text panel, I'd like the option to toggle on/off an 'Open link in new tab' setting. This would give me more control over how users navigate my dashboards, allowing me to more thoughtfully orchestrate the experience.

    With the latest version of Aha, this has changed. I can see that the links set into a dashboard text field are always opening in the same tab.

    In some cases this is useful (like in the original idea description), but it would be more comfortable to be able to set this as a parameter in the link itself as there could be different cases.
