64673 - [RFE] option to keep focus in current window after open link in new window

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 56690

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

Description

[u12624]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m18) Gecko/20001222
BuildID:    2000122204

When selecting "Open link in new window" from the pop-up menu of a link, the new
browser window gets the focus. For people with slow 'net connections an option
to stay with the original browser window would be nice.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.mozilla.org/ or any page with links.
2. Right click on a link
3. Select "Open link in new window"

Actual results: You wait while the new link is opened, and have to manually go
back to the original page while the new one is loading

Expected results: Stay with the original page if that option is selected, please.
