399041 - Command+Click on Bookmarks Toolbar Folder links does not follow my "select tabs immediately" pref

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 331666

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Mikael Vidstedt]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7) Gecko/20070914 Firefox/2.0.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7) Gecko/20070914 Firefox/2.0.0.7

Even though I've cleared the "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately", Command-Click on one of the Bookmarks Toolbar Buttons still switches immediately to the newly created tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure the option in Preferences->Tabs->"When I open..." is cleared
2. Press and hold Command and click on one of the button bookmarks in the Toolbar
Actual Results:  
The bookmark is opened in a new tab, and the new tab is selected.

Expected Results:  
The bookmark should have been opened in a new tab, but the original tab should still be the active one.

Confirmed also on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007100705 Minefield/3.0a9pre ID:2007100705

The Tab Preference is not honored when i use toolbar actions like open a bookmark in a new tab.

This is controlled by a different pref, which doesn't have UI (see bug 295098).
