Say you choose to have your bookmarks on the sidebar.  If you use the middle
button to choose a bookmark nothing happens.  One would expect the brouser to
open a new tab, and visit the page chosen in that tab.  This is what happens
when you middle click on a link in a page.  For the sake of consistency middle
clicking on a bookmark should behave identically.

The way things are now you have to manually create a new tab, select it, and
then left click on the bookmark in question.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just follow my instructions in the description.
