156780 - About [Plug-ins, Mozilla] load in different locations

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 101167

(SeaMonkey :: Help Documentation, enhancement)

Description

[Kirk Kelsey]

When selecting About Plug-ins from the help menu, the current tab is used for
display.  When selecting About Mozilla from the same menu, a new window is
opened for the display.  The two should be consistent/predictable.

Reproducable: always
Steps to reproduce:
   1) select Help -> About Plug-ins
   2) select Help -> About Mozilla
   3) notice that they did different things
Actual Results: a new page in my window (tab) and a new window (with tab)
Expected Results: either 
   a) Two new windows
   b) The About: Mozilla displayed in the current window (tab) having replaced
the about:plug-ins (which replaced whatever I was looking at)

Ideally the bahavior or both options would follow some assumption about how one
usually opens new pages (i.e. in a new tab or in the current window)
Clearly, very different things happen if one types about:mozilla into the URL
