Could moved threads open in the same window?

When I click a link to a moved thread, it opens in a new window, just as any other link within a post. Could we make an exception for moved threads?

There are two ways:

1- on any forum index list (list of threads), there is the moved folder icon. Click on that instead of viewing the thread.
2- on your control panel go to system preferences. There is the option "open links in new windows". Set to "no" and press submit.

The routine that decodes posts Mac, is the tightest routine on the whole system. It's the most used routine on the whole system and I want to keep it as small and fast as possible. Adding in an exception for each message to check if it is an insite WebmasterWorld link would slow us down an inordinate amount of time. I do have "think up alternative hack" on the list of things to consider - there maybe someway around the current system that I've not considered yet.

Thanks Brett, I did not know about the icon.
