Olli, do you know why we're allowing the middle click and Chrome is not (that's the behaviour I see in Nightly on Windows 10, FWIW)?

Expected behaviour is to get a new tab with the same contents as if the user had just left-clicked within the current tab.
Anything else is a violation of the principle of least astonishment, no matter what other browsers do.
