This is pretty simple with a bit of javascript using jQuery.  Try the
following in local/html/Callbacks/NewWindow/Elements/Header/Head:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    jQuery(function(){
      jQuery(".ticket-info-attachments a, .downloadattachment a")
        .attr("target","_new")
    });
    </script>

then clear your mason cache and restart your webserver.
