    Description

      QtQuick's WebEngineView doesn't emit any signal if <a href="..." target="_blank"> is clicked.

      WebEngineView.experimental emits newViewRequested signal, but it's impossible to retrieve an url from it to open it by Qt.openUrlExternally().

      May be we should introduce some convient API for this case?
