Patch - reorder tab/window items (4.86 KB, patch)

Description Corey Burger 2005-05-07 22:15:13 UTC 
Currently the right click order is Open Link, Open in new window and open in new
tab. This should be reordered to Open in new tab, Open in New Window, and you
can remove open, as the functionality is already provided for by the left click.

The HIG specifies that the default left-click operation (i.e. Open Link) should
be the first context menu item. I'm open for arguments about swapping Open In
New Tab and Open In New Window around.
Comment 3 Corey Burger 2005-06-01 06:32:03 UTC 
Hmm, that is probably not the smartest thing for the HIG to say, as you can get
that functionality be left clicking. If you right-click, you are probably
looking for something else. 

FF currently does New Window and then New Tab (with no Open). This bugs the hell
out of me, and I suspect is a holdover from the pre tab days.

Comment 6 Wouter Bolsterlee (uws) 2006-04-27 22:32:04 UTC 
Corey (comment #3), there is a reason for having the first item doing the same as left click: discoverability (know what a click will do).
