This began in 2003-08-05. Rightclick on a link and choose "Bookmark this Link".
Bookmark so created will have as a default property "Load this Bookmark in
Sidebar".  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Rightclick on any link.
2. Select "Bookmark this Link"
3. Save link in any folder.

Actual Results:  
New bookmark opens in sidebar by default.

Expected Results:  
Open normally, in same window.

The behavior is visible in the Properties window of the bookmark. It can be
changed to normal by clearing the checkbox.
Ed, I can confirm this behaviour with latest Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0;
en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030806 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1+
