Rails simple_format and auto_link weirdness

| # This does not appear to recognize the :target => "_blank" when the page is rendered | |
| simple_format(auto_link(@task.description, :html => { :target => "_blank" })) | |
| # However, this works fine | |
| auto_link(simple_format(@task.description), :html => { :target => "_blank" }) |
simple_format( link_to( ... ) ) also strips the target.
Same problem, but I found that doing this causes simple_format to preserve the target:
simple_format(some_anchor, {}, sanitize: false)when some_anchor is a link that contains the 'target: "_blank"' attribute.
However, specifying
simple_format(link_to("foo", "http://example.com/"), html: { target: "_blank" }, sanitize: false)still loses the 'target: "_blank"' attribute.
