279862 - Ctrl-click open tab in background: page loses focus

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 200950

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[D.Tietze]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

I have deselected "Select new tabs opened from links", i.e. new
tabs open in the background. 
When CTRL-Clicking a link for opening it in a background tab, 
the current tab/page loses focus - the mouse scroll wheel 
no longer scrolls the page view. 

Simply clicking on the page again returns focus, so this is a
really trivial "problem".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do Web search
2. CTRL-Click on link to open new Tab in background
3. Move mouse wheel

Actual Results:  
Visible page doesn't scroll.

Expected Results:  
Visible page should scroll with mouse wheel.

This is dup to bug200950 though there is problem bug266092 that wheel scroll
doesn't work to lose focus by a similar operation.
