Steps to reproduce:

Until 115, it was perfect. You didn't need a browser to read RSS feeds.
Clicking a feed would open the Feed preview in the Vertical View bar, and if you wanted to read more you would double click the Feed Title and the Full Web page with the article would open in a new tab

Now, I know I can there is an option "View > Feed Message body as > Web page". The problem is that this options opens a Web page in both preview and New tab (Double click). I want them separate, as they were before

Repro steps:
Subscribe to a RSS feed
Double click on an unread (or read) article

Actual results:

Article's summary opens in a new tab, same as feed preview

Expected results:

Article's Web page opens

Summary: Double click opens Summary in a new tab instead of Web page → Double click in RSS feed opens Summary in a new tab instead of Web page

Can reproduce.

I argue: "View > Feed Message body as > Web page" should definitely apply to the preview, anything else would be counterintuitive, as the preview is the first thing that people see and is associated with "message body".

If anything, there should be a separate option to change the settings in the tab.
