Links inside a Steemit article should open in a new tab
During my visits to the articles of other Steemians I found a thing that could be changed on steemit. 

Many Steemians are in their articles adding links from other websites, and once you click on them you are automatically transferred to the website of the link. Unfortunately you are leaving steemit since the link is opened in the same tab where you are reading the steemit article. 

It would be ideal, but maybe difficult, to add a function similar to the one you find in WordPress.  When you add a link in an article in WP you have the chance to chose that the link should open in a new tab, which I think is  ideal for the experience of the reader.

Is anyone else agreeing with me on this one?
