Earlier today I noticed on Meta that holding Ctrl or Shift while clicking on a topic in `/latest` not longer caused a new tab/window to open. I thought it was a fluke, but after updating my dev instance I can confirm it there too.

Note: This only seems to affect `/latest`. The latest section on `/categories` seems to be unaffected.

Edit: This also affect Suggested Topics.

There were a lot of edge cases due to the topic title not always being visible, and it depending on a “loaded” state. It took a while, but I think I managed to make our application a lot smarter about showing topic titles when navigating to them from topic lists.
