[issue1753371] Open always create new tab or new browser

[Georg Brandl]

Georg Brandl added the comment:

With Firefox, that's probably because you have set the default behavior
to "open a new tab", so there's nothing webbrowser.py can do about that.

In Windows, os.startfile() is used, which doesn't allow remote settings
like "new window" etc., so there's nothing webbrowser.py can do about
that, too.

Setting tentatively to "Won't fix".
