This is a sugestion for a new feature:

At the present, when right clicking a link in a page we have several options,
like "Open Link in New Tab".

My sugestion is to add a new option called "Open Link in (existing) Tab".

This option in the menu could appear as:

 Open Link in Tab >

And when the user has the mouse over that option, a new menu appears with a list
of the current tabs

   -> Tab 1 (tab page title optional)
   -> Tab 2 (tab page title optional)
   -> Tab ...

When the user clicks on one of them, the link is opened in that tab.

This way the user can control where (which tab, that is) he wants the page to be
open.

There's a simple existing way of doing this: drag the link to the tab title.
