Description
Today, it's very likely that browsers will open links with a target="_blank"
attribute in a new browser's tab rather than in a new window. It is true that this depends also on user settings, but in the vast majority of the cases they will open in a new tab.
Considering also the propsed change in Gutenberg, see https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/6245, I'd propose to just change "window" to "tab".
