Open link in a new tab or window

I did it on the easy and (not recomended) way, override the module, on the line 293, there is the url_field_formatter_prepare_view function, just add this code

<?php
function url_field_formatter_prepare_view($entity_type, $entities, $field, $instances, $langcode, &$items, $displays) {
  foreach ($entities as $id => $entity) {
    $settings = $displays[$id]['settings'];

    foreach ($items[$id] as $delta => &$item) {
      // If the formatter is configured to add rel="nofollow" to links, then
      // add them here.
      if (!empty($settings['nofollow'])) {
        $item['options']['attributes']['rel'] = 'nofollow';
        $item['options']['attributes']['target'] = '_blank'; // adding _black atribute
      }
    }
  }
}
?>

This feature is a "must" on this module, I dont understand why they didn't incluide it at first....
