middlemouse.contentLoadURL currently controls at least two seperate things:

The behavior of the middle mouse button when clicking on the tabname.
The behavior of the middle mouse button when clicking on the page text.

I am torn as to whether to turn it on or off, as I am very much used to closing tabs with the middle button from recent work experience which dumped me into a Windows-heavy desktop environment, where such behavior is the default, and my preference at home for Linux.  However, if I could set TWO booleans, rather than just the one, and enable middlemouse.contentLoadURL behavior in the page body, but disable it when hovering over the tab-bar, that would be a perfect remedy for my problem.

Please implement - This would be a wonderful feature/wonderful way to get the best of both worlds.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Clicky the middle mouse button
