User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/44.0.2403.155 Safari/537.36 OPR/31.0.1889.174

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open any page
2. hold CTRL button and click link on page



Actual results:

New tab is opened. User is moved to new opened tab


Expected results:

New tab should be opened in the background. The user should stay on present tab.
It works in this way in any other browsers.

I can notice, that also option to open new tab in background is removed from menu (when perform left mouse button click)

Is rather usability issue.
Version is: 40.0.3

I've found solution.
in 'abount:config' i've changed flag browser.tabs.loadInBackground to 'true'.
But I think, it should be set to true by default :-)

:-)
I hope someone change this flag to true by default :-)
It was changed automatically after update from 40.0.2 to 40.03.
This is common behavior in all browsers, that new page appear in new tab in background.

But, right, it  works now  :-)
