The keyboard shortcuts which cause the history link to be opened in a new tab (ctrl + click) also does not function.

The malfunction of the keyboard shortcut seems to be from an add-on or theme but the context menu problem remains.  I will track it down and get back to you.

Wow - that bug is from 2004.  I guess if it hasn't been fixed by now, it's not going to be.
