Customized header link target attribute being ignored

Oh this is interesting, if you take that code and change it to

<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.4">
api.decorateWidget('header-buttons:after', helper => {
    const showExtraInfo = helper.attrs.minimized;
        if(!showExtraInfo) {
            return helper.h('a.blog-link', {href:'https://blog.example.com', target:'_blank'}, 'Visit our blog');
        }
});
</script>

It will open in a new window just fine.

So there seems to be a difference in how the clicks are handled when it is home-logo:after versus header-buttons:after
