1487519 - Let accel-click and middle-click on the new tab button open a new tab next to the current one

Status: NEW

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

Description

[Frank-Rainer Grahl (:frg)]

Bug was modified and pref to always open a new tab next to the current one was added. Doing this on a case by case basis still needs a keyboard modifier or shortcut key added to SeaMonkey. This issue is tracked in this bug.

With many tabs, FF currently opens links or new tab somewhere at the far end of all tabs. Especially for links that are related to the current page, that's very inconvenient as user needs to drag newly opened tab all the way back to place it beside the current tab. There should be some way of opening links/new tabs right next to the current tab.

As implemented in FF, this was done as a modifier-click on the "+" button that adds a tab; I would greatly prefer that this be implemented as a preference, so that command-T in Mac OS and its Windows equivalent could be set to open the new tab to the right by default.
