I've used Galeon for ages (Mozilla based GNOME browser). I have "Open
new windows in tabs set". I've never seen any window or popup open
anywhere except in a tab by the one I'm currently in. It even groups the
tabs nicely for me.

This problem seems to have been solved long ago. Nothing to see here,
move on.

Cheers,
