User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:28.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/28.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20131201030203 Steps to reproduce: Ctrl+Click on a listing on http://slickdeals.net with JavaScript enabled. Actual results: It performs the same function as left click. Expected results: The result should open in a new tab (same effect as middle click). I suggest an about:config entry to disable JS overriding clicks - something like dom.event.click.enabled → false.
