User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:66.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/66.0
Steps to reproduce:
Since Firefox 66 the title bar has been disabled on Linux by default. This essentially makes the tab bar the header bar [1].
Actual results:
By default, when middle clicking on the unused space in the header bar Firefox will create a new tab. This behaviour deviates from basically all other apps. Doing the same in a different app will send it to the background, making the underlying app visible and active.
There is a work-around to at least disable the creation of a new tab [2], but this does not yet bring the sending to background behaviour back yet.
Expected results:
Would it be possible to change the current behaviour of middle clicking the tab/title bar to match that of other Linux apps?
Besides consistency, it makes switching between windows a lot more efficient.
Using GNOME Shell 3.32 on Ubuntu 19.04.
