Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20080311 Firefox/2.0.0.13
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20080311 Firefox/2.0.0.13

After installing 2.0.0.13 have noticed that middle-clicking on bookmark overwrites the existing tab instead of opening a new tab.  All other middle-clicking (e.g. link in web-page) continues to open in new tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Click on Bookmarks menu
2.middle-click on any bookmark
3.
Actual Results:  
bookmark opens up in same tab

Expected Results:  
bookmark should open in new tab
Version: unspecified → 2.0 Branch
This works fine for me on Windows XP.
Can you also reproduce this in safe-mode? This to exclude extension / theme problems.
