New window behavior changed with FF 29.0.1. I have a custom page that I built that has a bunch of links to sites/pages that I visit frequently. Every one of the links on that page begins with <a target="_blank" href=" >

I typically keep this page maximized and until FF 29.0.1, when I clicked one of those links, it opened in a new maximized window. If I had the page restored instead of maximized, when I clicked one of those links it opened in a new restored window. In other words, the new window was opened in the same window state as the page from which I clicked the link. Now, when I click a link on a maximized window, it opens in restored view and I have to manually maximize it. It's a pain in the patoot.

I'd like to know how to change FF to return to the previous behavior and also why someone felt it was necessary to change this behavior.

You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file.
