Whenever I open a saved bookmark or a saved HTML or URL file by dragging and dropping it as a new tab in Firefox, it opens the site in both the currently opened tab AS WELL as in the newly created tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a bookmark (on the Bookmarks Toolbar, for example)
2. Open it by dragging and dropping it as a new tab

Actual Results:  
The link is opened both in the currently opened tab as well as in the new tab.

Expected Results:  
The link should only open in the new tab.

The same happens with locally saved HTML and URL files.
Are you seeing this in safe mode as well?

Thanks for the quick reply... I just tried it now and no, it doesn't happen in safe mode. Could this be related to any extension?
I've done some investigating and I've narrowed the culprit down to the Gmail Manager 0.5.7.2 extension. I will report this in their website.
