i'm not entirely sure this is possible with the current way markdown parsing works (all links are just an <a> tag), but it would be nice.

It's possible, I actually had that at first and have the code for it, but then I read

and

I could provide that optionally in the markdown parser

not opening links in a new tab sounds like good default behavior, i agree. but i also think it should be an option. i imagine inline html would work with the markdown parser?
