Description Sergey Kirienko 2009-07-09 17:19:42 UTC 
If links are opened in new tab instead of new window, then context menu command should be named "Open Link in a New Tab", not "Open Link in a New Window". This should  be not hardcoded, but dependant on default links opening behaviour.

Steps to Repoduce:
1. In any webpage right-click on a link
2. See theh second item in context menu — Open Link in a New Window (in my Russian locale it is "Открыть ссылку в новом окне")
3. Click it and note that the link actually opens in a new tab, not window
4. Be confused.

Other positive impact of this fix will be that just by calling context menu a user can understand how new links usually opened by browser ("Aha, they open new links in new tabs, not windows!")

Actually the 2.27 context menu is from WebKit, we will need to re-implement our own context menu to avoid regressions.
