Additional information

This problem is the worst on mobile, because the link does absolutely nothing there. There is no shift key to hold while tapping it, and long-tap doesn’t give the option to open in the browser either.

I suspect this behaviour occurs for any link in any embedded iframe, but this Google map is just where I noticed it, and where I know it’s 100% reproducible.

This is not a bug. That iframe is trying to open a popup and we don’t allow it for security reasons.
