Given that there are a large number of ways to open the home page in a new
foreground tab (e.g. ctrl-t + click, shift-middle click, etc.), there are a
very large number of other places in the UI where middle-click opens a new
background tab (including other toolbar buttons), there are no places I can
think of offhand where middle-click opens a new foreground tab, and this
behavior matches other browsers, I'm opposed to changing this.

Besides, in at least my own use, background tabs would be more useful
anyway.  I never want the browser to change tabs for me and I queue up
things as I think about them so I will do them in order.
