Plugin Directory Admins: Contact Plugin Author should open in new window

#1690 is not working anymore.

It doesn't fill in the email address nor the subject. This is not critical, as we can copy/paste emails :D

Update: Works on Chrome but NOT on Safari. o.O

Actually, it appears to work in Chrome, so I'll take a look at it. Also it would be nice if it opened in a new tab instead of the current one.

Further testing. This works once I rebooted everything so it was a my-computer glitch there. But. You can't open in a new window, which is annoying. Can be fixed WAY later. We may just need a Support Press plugin down the road.

TIL forms have a target attribute too :)

Adblock doesn't like it. I'll look into it, it's not a blocker for now.

FWIW, just tested in Chrome with AdBlock on Windows 10, opening the form in a new tab seems to work as expected, though for me it just redirects to SupportPress login form.

WordPress core uses a similar approach for the Preview button, although it ​sets the attribute with JS, but I guess it shouldn't matter.

On review and having used the directory for a month now, I classify this as won't fix. We don't actually need it. I was wrong :)
