Is it possible to restart the discussion about the "open new window"
quicklists entry?

While I like the idea to use the "middle click" to open a new window, I
can imagine that some users will have a problem with this
implementation.

Is it thus possible to keep both solutions? A quicklists entry to open
the new window AND the middle click as the primary option to open a new
window?

Especially the emulation of the middle click leads to some problems. I
myself am that ham-handed that using the middle click emulation leads
occasionally to a situation where I have to try twice or even thrice.

I asked a couple of friends and colleagues of mine (all of them use Ubuntu as 
their primary system or at least in a dual boot environment). So out of these 
six people I questioned four feel uncomfortable with the middle click because 
they feel somewhat irritated by the mouse wheel, which is factually their 
middle click (sounds funny, I know). 
Furthermore all of them (six out of six) do not like the middle click emulation 
(as it seems they are as clumsy as I am ;) ). All of them said it should at 
least be an option to have a secondary possibility to open a new window (i.e. a 
quicklists entry). 

So is it possible to reintroduce the quicklists entry?
