As somebody working a lot with the keyboard, inserting an external link takes a lot of actions:
alt i
l
If the link address is in the clipboard, is appears in the correct field - very good. Until here it is smooth, but now it becomes cumbersome:
tab
tab
tab
tab
space
tab
arrow down
return
I suggest an option: "set 'new window' as default" which would save 7 key hits or an unwanted interruption of keyboard use.
Thanks for the really great work!!!
