Option to have links open in new window - 20 views

  Please read this one carefully, because somebody is bound to skim it and misunderstand. I know that we can set our own accounts so that when we're browsing, bookmarks on other people's Diigo profiles open into new windows. That's not what I'm talking about.
  
  What I'd like to have, as a Diigo user, is the option to set a default on my own bookmarks. Currently, when somebody who isn't logged into Diigo visits my profile and clicks on the link for one of my bookmarks, he goes to the page I've bookmarked, staying in the same window. This means that if he should want to visit a number of the sites I have bookmarked, he's going to get to do a lot of back arrowing. It's a headache, and many visitors won't bother.
  
  What I'd like to see, on my profile, is those links opening in new windows (target="_blank") so that all a visitor has to do, to get back to my page of bookmarks, is close the new window, perhaps overridden by the visitor's account settings when he is logged into Diigo, with this being a standard option offered.
