You are absolutely correct.  If I double-click on the menu Bookmarks, I
can then open the tab as before with a single click on the bookmark
name.  This works on Ubuntu 18.04 MATE.

However, on Linux Mint 19 MATE, it is necessary to double-click on both
'Bookmarks" and the actual bookmark name too in order to open a new
tab.  I'm not sure if this helps you track down the offending commit.
