When opening a plain text link in the current tab, it is displayed as a plain text web page. However, when opening the link in a new tab, katepart is used instead Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click any link on http://www.textfiles.com/computers/ 2. See how it is displayed as a regular web page 3. Ctrl+click the same link 4. See how it is opened in a katepart tab, with spell checking and everything Expected Results: The bahavior should be consistent (IMO should behave like the first case, since usually one doesn't want to edit the text file)
