GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 144087
Bookmarks should open in tabs by default
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
By default, double-clicking in a bookmark opens it in a new window. It should open in a tab instead, and keep the 2 entries in the context menu (new tab or new window).
That was a design decision made in bug 109224. If you want to change it, you should initiate discussion on the mailing list.
