Description
When there are two or more outputResource components, if one is already open, opening a second one will overwrite the first. The improvement is to add a way to change the destination target of the component. Right now in our source it is hard coded to traget="blank".

The reason a new browser window (or tab) is not open is that the hard coded target value should be "_blank", not "blank". (Common HTML mistake.) But I will add the target attribute anyway and make "_blank" the default value.
Does this handle the case where you want to overwrite? i.e: you want the same target

Yes. Just set the target attribute explicitly. Anything other than "_blank" (default) will reuse an existing target window with the same name, if any. Otherwise a new window with the specified name will be created.
consider: resource.setAttribute("target", outputResource.getPath());
as a default if a passed through target is not supplied to component
