'Open in new tab' option has been introduced in many core blocks:

• core/avatar
• core/button
• core/comment-author-name
• core/comment-edit-link
• core/file
• core/gallery
• core/image
• core/post-author-name
• core/post-title
• core/read-more
• core/site-logo
• core/site-title

Since social icon links are supposed to be external links, so this suggestion makes a lot of sense.

Sorry, I didn't do enough research, but Social Links Block already has the capability.

We can set a batch of link openings, is this what you are looking for?

@t-hamano Thanks for checking with me. I see in order get option 'open new window'. you have to select whole social area. If you click on individual social icon, there is no way you can check the option on or off. Thank you for your help!
