Details

There's a new nice feature described in https://hacks.mozilla.org/2016/06/helping-web-developers-with-javascript-errors/ STR: Middle-mouse click on the link (Intuitively I'd rather press middle not left mouse to deliberately open in a new tab). AR: Nothing ER: Open page in new tab (actually, same as left mouse click does)

Another downside of this issue is that it is not possible to open the links in the background. Say you have several "Learn more" links. You cannot middle-click them one after another (like I do e.g. on Google) because the first left-click always takes you out the context into the new page.

Summary: Middle mouse click on "Learn more" JS Error links should open in new tab → Middle mouse click (and Cmd/Ctrl + click) on links in the console should open in the background

Should be fixed by Bug 1457109. Can you confirm Jens?
