Sticky Pinned Tabs
This extension forces all links within a pinned tab to open with target=_blank. This makes your pinned tabs more "sticky" in that clicking on links won't lose the pinned content.
What is Sticky Pinned Tabs?
Sticky Pinned Tabs is a Firefox add-on that forces all links within a pinned tab to open in new tabs. This ensures that your pinned content remains intact even when clicking on links.

User reviews
@Gerard: i think there is another extension for you then: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/origin-lock/ - there description sounds exactly what you asked for.
But personally for me - pinned is always pinned, i use it for things like issue trackers and wiki, where i want "table of contents" always open and never washed out, while all happend within the same site.
For other fellow reviewers, if you feel the feature of this one should be in the settings of out-of-the-box Firefox - vote https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/pinned-tab-should-not-all-the-url-to-change/idi-p/34397
