User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:6.0a1) Gecko/20110414 Firefox/6.0a1 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:6.0a1) Gecko/20110414 Firefox/6.0a1 This is a feature request: Ctrl-[click link] should un-hide the tab bar when viewing full screen. Currently, if a user has un-selected the option "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" then they will not have any indication of the opening of a new tab when they Ctrl-click to open a link in a new tab, while using full screen mode. Easy fix to my mind is: un-hide the tab bar whenever a new tab is opened, when using full screen. This also fixes the issue of websites which attempt to open new windows, that instead land in a new tab. Perhaps there is a better solution, but this is certainly a problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter full screen mode. 2. Browse to a page with links. 3. Hold down the Ctrl button and click a link. 4. Note that there's no indication of a new tab. Actual Results: There don't appear to be any. You could Ctrl-click ad infinitum and you'd see no indication of a new tab until you deliberately move the cursor to the tab bar. Expected Results: Perhaps pop open the tab bar? Or maybe even just dangle a single tab from the top of the screen?
