I have seen this neat behaviour in other browsers (opera and IS7, as I recall) and thought it would be a nice addition to FF.

When I right click a link to open it in a new tab, I expect to use it immediately and so would like it to be easily accessible. If the new tab is opened adjacent to the current tab (the one I right-clicked in), I think it would be easier to access. This is especially true if I have a large number of tabs open at the same time.
