137279 - Should be able to open tabs with CTRL click on toolbars, etc

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 59132

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.9+) Gecko/20020412
BuildID:    2002041206

If you enter an URL in the location bar and CTRL+Enter, it will open a new tab.
This should also be the same for the toolbar just below the location bar(and
also above the tabs), the links bar I think - but obviously it should be
CTRL+CLick. It contains : Contact, People, Yellow Page etc.

Not only for toolbar, but also for the popup menu when clicking and holding the
back/forward buttons.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
CTRL+Click "Yellow Pages" or whatever in the Links bar(below Location bar) and
it would be better to open in a new tab.

Actual Results:  Opens in the same tab.

Expected Results:  Open in a new tab.

It is a good enchancement.

BTW, I know you can drag the toolbar buttons to the tabbed area bits, but it
would be easier to CTRL click for some people.
