Affected Version:
Nightly - 140.0a1/20250514211700
Description:
Right clicking on the pageAction acts as a left click and opens the page in a Taskbar Tabs window.
Steps to reproduce:
- Access https://www.wikipedia.org/ and right click on the pageAction
- Notice the page is opened in a Taskbar Tabs window as if the pageAction was left clicked
Actual results:
Right clicking on the pageAction acts as a left click.
Expected:
Right clicking the pageAction should do nothing as if I’m not mistaken, the pageAction does not have a right click context menu to be brought up.

The reason this is needed is that internal 'click' events apparently
activate from any mouse button, unlike on web content where they appear
to only fire on left clicks.
This also removes the button from the navigator-toolbox list. It doesn't
make sense to tangle Taskbar Tabs with the core navigation code, and at
any rate it just throws an error right now. I'm pretty sure it was left in
by accident.

Since nightly and release are affected, beta will likely be affected too.

Verified as Fixed. Tested on the latest Nightly (142.0a1/20250625215831).
Right clicking the pageAction does nothing now, both in a normal browser window and in a Taskbar Tabs window. Left clicking remains unaffected and performs the corresponding action.

Feature disabled behind a pref, not an uplift priority.
