89922 - Open bookmarks from sidebar in new window when holding command key.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Benjamin Mucci]

It would be nice to be able to open bookmarks from the sidebar in an new window
when holding down the command key ( under Mac.. don't know which key under PC
for open new window when clicking links). The option should also be add in the
sidebar contextual menu.

The "command+click = New window already" works in the bookmarks manager but the
option isn't in the contextual menu.

Confirmed on WinNT 07/06: Ctrl+clicking on a bookmark in the sidebar opens it in
the current window and doesn't even select it in the bookmark tree.  It should
select the bookmark and then open it in a new window.  I haven't tested
middle-clicking because I have a two-button mouse.

middle click on a bookmark tries to open the url "wrong" in the same tab,
producing an alertbox "www.wrong.com could not be found. Please check the name
and try again." (linux, moz1.5)
