Firefox Version: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:88.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/88.0
Window Size (inner width and height): 2225x1324
Steps to Reproduce
Right click on an image or video.
Expected Behavior
Allow viewing an image or video in the same tab while having the choice - via CTRL or middle mouse button - to open it to a new tab if needed.
The same behaviour that has been present for probably a decade, if not longer.
Actual Behavior
Only an option to open an image or video into a new tab is available ever since 88.0, no option to open it in the same window, which unnecessarily reduces functionality and causes unnecessary steps every time its desired to only show an image / video, as in, having to close the other tab.
Also it prevents keeping only the image or video open and being able to backtrack to site from there, as the site is now in a different tab.
