target="_self" causes a full page reload

Describe the bug
Using target="_self" causes a full page reload.

$: target = newWindow ? '_blank' : '_self'

<a {href} {target}>
  Click here
</a>

Expected behavior
The link should open in the same browser tab without causing a full page reload but only client-side (re)loading.
