Comment 10 for bug 371151

Bevis,

I don't think it should be a config change. There is a lengthy discussion on the subject here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135884

Also, note from the discussion above that the same behaviour is available by middle-clicking on the site icon, just left of the address bar, whether middlemouse.contentLoadURL is true or false.

What would make sense though would be to have it as a standard preference options, as suggested in the thread above. It's already being discussed in Bugzilla so may happen at some point. In the meantime, I'll mark this bug as invalid.
