Description

[M2Ys4U]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041026 Firefox/1.0RC1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041026 Firefox/1.0RC1

If I middle click anywhere (except a link) on a webpage, Firefox navigates to
the google "I'm feeling lucky" search result for whatever is in the clipboard.
On Windows, I'm able to scroll down using middle-click (then move mouse pointer
down/up/left/right).

Wouldn't it be better if all mozilla builds exerted the same function for this
action?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.copy come text to clipboard
2.middle-click a webpage (or blank tab)

Actual Results:  
Firefox niavigates to the google I'm feeling lucky result for what is in the
clipboard

Expected Results:  
replicate Windows' scroll feature
