Whatever you want to do.  Each application embedding WebControl may
want to do something different -- you may want to open a window,
others may want to open a tab, still others may want to ignore it...

That would be one way to do it.

Presumably you set NewEmbed to the instance of WebControl you are
using, though I am not sure.  There is no way I can see on
NewWindowArgs to obtain the URL being navigated to, because there may
not be one.

My guess is that you set NewEmbed to a reference to the new WebControl
object and the current one will make it navigate there itself.
Setting it to your current instance may make it tell itself to go
there.

No, it views exactly one page.  You have to instantiate new
WebControls if you want to offer the ability to view more than one at
a time.
