That's new for me. How could "somewhere" be a valid location? It could be
about anything like somewhere.htm, s-.html, s-jpg etc.
IMO only somewhere/ is valid.
You can define files like index.htm or index.php as defaults. Is it also
possible to set an extension like .htm als default??

Ehhh, the 'blah' is not the destination but the anchor text (=the visible
hyperlinked text on the page; to indicate the subject matter of the page
that it links to).
