Your editor suggests "figure out how to make betterdesktop.org display reports in firefox without popping up new windows" as a nice place to start.

Either they've fixed it quite promptly or one solution lies in setting Firefox not to popup new windows. When I dug down to what I assume are the reports in question and clicked on the first one (login), it opened a new tab, not a new window. Which seems appropriate to me: if I'd been browsing without any expectation the link was anything but vanilla, I think that would be the point where I'd have hit the middle button to intentionally get the report page in a new tab. In fact after it had opened in the new tab I wasn't absolutely certain that I hadn't done just that, and felt the need to double check it by reopening the report. :-)
