Package: chromium
Version: 29.0.1547.57-3+b1
Severity: minor
When opening a new tab Chromium's window automatically jumps to the
front/gets raised. This is annoying if you've got a list of links eg in
an email and want to open them all before leaving the first
email/document. This doesn't seem to be normal behaviour for most other
multi-tabbed applications eg Firefox/Iceweasel.
I've written a patch to fix this and posted it upstream. I hope Debian
maintainers will consider adding this patch if it goes ignored upstream.

When I middle-click on a link, it opens in a new tab that doesn't have
focus. At some point upstream must've fixed this bug, so I'm going to
close this.
