Ok, who's bright idea was this?
Right clicking a link in

2.1b3 brings up:

o Open Link in a New Window
Who's idea was this? I must have opened about 10 new windows (instead of
tabs) this morning before figuring out the change. Still having trouble
adjusting... muscle memory is set& I have to pause after right-clicking
any link.
I think it is an improvement and I believe consistent with the change in
Firefox 4.0.
This is the SeaMonkey copy of the Firefox "Promote tabs over windows"
bug. Since opening a tab is more often used that opening a new window,
putting the tab item first leads to shorter mouse movements and an
incremental amount of time saved.
The first thing I did after installing FF4 was to put the tabs back on
the bottom where (IMO) they belong. You see, when you work with tabs on
a regular basis it makes no sense at all to have to move the mouse above
the URI/URL/Address bar to select a tab. The tab/window area is the main
workspace. Again; who's bright idea was that?
Google Chrome started the trend.

My first attempt to do this, so I apologize if it doesn't work. This is
a reply from Jay Garcia to Tabs...why? in the mozilla.support.firefox
newsgroup.

If it works, I learned how to do something new today!
