Another broken function in today's trunk
(From BOFH notes: today's flip-excuse card: it must be related to the Windows XP
launch)
On bugzilla mail, i used to middle click in order to get to the bugs in a new
window, and that does not work

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Middle click on any mail with URL


Actual Results:  Does not work as intented

Expected Results:  Open url in new window

Workaround: right click and choose open in new window, therefore i am marking as
minor, thought this is serious for accessability

If you use this pref:
user_pref("browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick", true);
then middle-click on links in mail does nothing. That's bug 101955.
PLEASE dont dup this one unless someons has 100% proof that this is a bug. I
will close it again myself if this one gets fixed by fixing the other

Windows user, verify this in the latest nightly and either mark verified or tell
me to do so
Fixed under win2k

Hi, I'm a winXP user and this isn't working today with the just posted build in
10-27-11-trunk.  Is there a pref i need to play with?
There is no reason why winxp would not work when win2k does.
My advice, uninstall mozilla, install it in a clean directory, and create a new
profile to make sure everything is clean and retest
I went through my files, one by one, and found that I had to delete my old
XUL.mfl file.
Can anyone tell me what this file does or if I lost any data with it?
