RadButton Target attribute not honored

[John]

I have a RadButton that looks like this

<telerik:RadButton ID="btnCancelRegistration" runat="server" Width="691px" Height="144px"
                     SingleClick="False" NavigateUrl="<%$Resources:, btnCancelRegistrationResource1.NavigateUrl %>" ButtonType="LinkButton" Target="_blank" Text="Moved On?" AutoPostBack="False">
                     <Icon PrimaryIconCssClass="<%$Resources:, btnCancelRegistrationResource1.PrimaryIconClass %>" PrimaryIconWidth="700px" PrimaryIconHeight="150px" PrimaryIconLeft="0" PrimaryIconTop="0" />
                 </telerik:RadButton>

The button does bring up the specified URL, but it does not bring up a new page (as the Target="_blank" would indicate). Tested on Opera 24 and Firefox 33. Using .NET 4.5 / Rad 2014.2.618.45
