Package: firefox
Version: 68.7.0esr~linuxmint1+debbie
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

recently my firefox confronted me with a feature which feels like a bug:
Instead of open a search result in a background tab ctrl+click on the result
opens the tab in the foreground. After some investigation of settings and in
about:config I realized that this only happened with the Yahoo search engine
(https://de.search.yahoo.com/). Additionally their site settings don't
distinct
between loading in back- or foreground.

I wonder if there could be a setting which can prevent such
misbehavingwebsites
from idiotically masking the browser settings for opening pages. Until
this is
implemented I simply ban this site from my default engines list.

Best regards
Tilman.
