When you center click on the RSS(feed) menu link (the one that is created by
Firefox) , you expect the normal  behavior of center click, But it returns
control to the new opened tab and closes the RSS Menu.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a live bookmark
2. Navigate the live bookmark and center click any item
3.

Actual Results:  
the control is returned to the newly opened tab

Expected Results:  
newly opened tab should be opened in background(as in hrefs) and the RSS menu
link should not be killed/lost on center clicking any item

middle-click on bookmarks, by default, selects the new tab, the same is true for
live bookmarks.

middle click on links opens in the background, by default.

You can change both behaviours under Tools->Options->Advanced-Tabbed Browsing

Marking INVALID.  The "should remain open" aspect is a dupe of another bug, but
duping this could be confusing, so resolving based on the main report.
