135283 - Using middle mouse button to close tab results in Browser attempting to load clipboard data as URL.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 107147

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[scott]

1) Load any site.
2) Hit C-T.
3) click on new tab with middle mouse button.

Tab clicked closes, previous tab attempts to load the X clipboard text as a url.

I believe this behavior happens on WIn2k as well, but cannot confirm at this moment.
