I intend to turn "implicit ref=noopener for anchor and area elements for
target=_blank" on by default in 67. It has been developed behind the
"dom.targetBlankNoOpener.enabled" preference and enabled in nightly for ~2
cycles (it landed in FF65).

Safari has already shipped this feature:

Bug to turn on by default:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1522083

This feature was previously discussed in this "intent to implement"
thread:
