200276 - Pressing CTRL-T won't open a blank window, but uses Home Location

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 197671

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Wouter van Reeven]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401

When 1 or more tabs are open and the Control-T key combination is pressed, the
new tab will automatically load the Home Location page, instead of opening an
empty tab. This used to be the case up to version 1.3a.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start the browser
2.Press Control-T

Actual Results:  
A tab with the Home Location page is opened.

Expected Results:  
A blank tab should have been opened.

It says in the Help section that opening a blank tab is the expected behaviour.
It also doesn't say this has been modified in the change log.
