Browser: don't stop playback when switching tab and don't replace open tab when link is clicked in other app

All Finnish web radios are at radiot.fi and they don't have native Sailfish app, so I added it as bookmark and then added the bookmark to app launcher, however there are two issues:

  1. When I open another browser tab, the playback stops until I move to the radiot.fi tab again.
  2. if I click some link in another app (IRC/Communi Sailfish), the browser opens that link over the active tab meaning radiot.fi.

Both are very annoying, I think there may be reasons for 1. but I can think of another use case where the playback is wanted to continue for example listening music from youtube/youtify. 2. I think must be a bug.

Update: I was told that there was already thread about 2. which I didn't find because of wrong keywords.
