@Evan,

What I'm saying is I want Firefox to act like it did before the upgrade
in regards to focus policy.

The way it was before is that Firefox would only come to the front if
there were not already and instance running.  People often will go
through their emails and/or RSS feeds clicking links, but not wish to go
see or go to them until they are finished with all the emails/feeds.

Firefox 13 should, as it did before, remain in the background when it
opens a new tab if that is my wish.  Firefox needs honor the users
settings/wishes as far as focus goes.

I tested this on my laptop, which still had FF
12.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1.  I upgraded Firefox and only Firefox.
Before the upgrade, Firefox remained in the background when I clicked on
a link from an email.  After the upgrade, Firefox no longer remained in
the background when I clicked on a link from an email.

A major operational feature is no longer performing the way it did prior
to the upgrade.  This is a bug, not a feature request.
