Epiphany handels opening bookmarks in new tabs different than Firefox.
Usually, when you open a bookmark in a new tab via a click on the
mousewheel, a new active tab gets opened, with the bookmark as content.
Epiphany instead opens links from my bookmarks in the background.
This is quite inconvenient. When I browse the web, it's nice to open
links you might find interesting in new tabs in the background. This way
you browse e.g. through a news page and open article after article in
the background. After browsing the mainpage you read the articles inside
the tab. But when i open a page from my bookmarks I want it active now.
I don't want to look through my list if open tabs to find it.
Firefox uses two "about:config" keys to define the way bookmarks/links
are opened.
browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground = false
browser.tabs.loadInBackground = true
These keys exist also in Epiphany with the same values. But Epiphany
ignores the "browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground" key.
