Open accounts in a new tab from query preview

Would be great to be able to open an account in a new tab from a query preview or a report displayed within eTapestry. Currently any page attempted to open in a new tab or window opens to the home page not a specific page. Currently if I go change data in an account that comes up in a preview I have to go back through everything I click through or generate a new preview of the query which is not saving any time at all. 

Would be much easier to open the account in a new tab, make changes as required, then close that tab and do that same for the next account on the list.

    YES! The inability to open multiple tabs is our single largest gripe with eTapestry. It's a HUGE inconvenience. For instance, I run a Query that returns 10 results. If I want to see the detial of each of the 10 found records, I need to open one, rerun the Query, open the second, rerun the Query, etc. In other systems we've used, I could simply Command/Control/Alt click on each record and open 10 tabs with the 10 records I need to look at. It takes us far more time to work in eTapestry, and we place far more load on the eTapestry servers because we're constantly re-running queries.

    If anyone from Blackbaud ever looks at these Ideas (which I have to say I have reason to doubt by the lack of activity here!), there are least two or three other Idea submissions for the same thing.

    In general it is challenging not to be able to open menu items, links from reports and other links in eTap as a new tab or new window. I'll often need to open multiple accounts, reports, etc. at the same time to see them side by side, or prepare them as tabs for quick review...

    This would speed things up a lot.
