Not all mice have a middle mouse button, nor do they choose to emulate it.  I'd
like to be able to double click a tab to close it.  Doing so right now does not
seem to do anything.

Did you have some new explanation or rationale or, um, something, to counteract
bug 183809 and bug 158040? I don't see where anything's changed from the
discussion in bug 158040 - double-clicking is still what you do to open things,
making it a good candidate for "open this tab in a new window" and a truly
terrible candidate for "close this tab"
Oh damn, i was only searching open bugs.  Guess I'll be forced to use an extension.
