Details

I don't use tabs. I hate tabs. I have them turned off in preferences. (Middle click opens a new window, not a tab.) When I select text, pop up the context menu, and select "search web for __xyz__" it always opens a new tab. It should, instead, either open a new top-level window, or just re-use this window sans tab, in accordance with my preferences: browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick = false browser.tabs.opentabfor.urlbar = false Firefox 1.0.4, Linux.
