Bug Description

If I hold Ctrl while clicking on a link, a new tab is opened with that link.

However, the current tab's view area is replaced with the visible contents of the new tab (but clicks on that tab actually hit the old/current tab!).

And switching to any other tab continues to show the new tab's contents instead of the selected tab.

You can only reset things back to normal by visiting the newly opened tab. Then all the other tabs behave correctly again.

This is on desktop wily version 0.23+15.10.20150929-0ubuntu1.
