    linking to app profile using target="_top"

    The TOS say that an app is not allowed to control the parent window, which is why there is rNT.  A major use case for wanting to do this however is linking new users to your app's install page when they're viewing a friends profile.  I asked about this a couple months ago and was told that you would have to use target="_new" and pop up a new window.  However, I'm seeing a ton of apps that link to their install page in the same window using target="_top".  Is this allowed now?

    Thanks

    Can somebody from the MDP team give the final word on whether this is allowed, or if the apps that are doing it are "illegal" and will be made to change.  Thanks
