One would expect that when clicking a link on Whiteboard that points at an Section or other object on the same Whiteboard, it would simply bring that area into view. 

Now it instead opens a new browser tab to bring that into view. 

Suggestion: either just detect the self-reference and ask "open in same or new tab" or give us buttons on the box. You might also show such links as "Bookmark".

And a popup dialog with all such bookmarks on the page would be nice to ease navigation. With searchability.
