While not a huge issue, I use it extensively and have been making a lot of mistakes. Not sure this was intended. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Right click on link 2.Order of menu options has changed. 3. Actual Results: I ended up in a new window instead of a new tab
Its an intentional change from bug 316473.

That's an intended change in Firefox 4 which has been implemented by bug 322736.
Blocks: 322736
Version: unspecified → Trunk

I don't want to be mean or anything but the "enhancement" should have been applied back in 2006 and although logical is very annoying and some means could be provided as a transition for users like myself who are still using 3.6 versions alongside with 4.0. Using both versions every day means I end with new windows very often and is very distracting and is a valid reason for me to go back to 3.6 for a while until the dust settles. I hope you can do something about it.

Sorry Luis I meant to include this link to a restartless extension that does what you want when I duped your bug: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/legacy-link-context-menu/ I'll also put it in the URL field for others to find easier. Another workaround without an extension is to edit the userChrome.css file as described at http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/791244?page=2#answer-161497

I'll be trying both ways tomorrow. Luis
