Package: iceweasel
Version: 2.0.0.2+dfsg-1
Severity: minor

It used to be if you had an iceweasel instance open and you clicked the
starter in the menu, that it would open a new window instead of a new
tab, even if you had 'open links in new tab' set in your options. This
behaviour has changed in one of the latest updates. It now always opens
in a new tab. Thus the behaviour of running the iceweasel script with
no arguments has changed.

It seems to me that this is a regression. If you have a firefox instance
open and you are on the workspace where you have it open you can simply
use ctrl-T or file->open new tab to get another open tab. However, if
you are on another workspace the old behaviour would get you a new
window for that workspace, while the new behaviour requires you to find
your firefox/iceweasel instance, hit ctrl-N, drag this instance to the
other workspace and switch back. To me the old behaviour was
preferrable, but reporting this as minor since some might disagree.
