Steps to reproduce:
In Thunderbird 102.x and earlier, clicking with the middle button on a folder or message selects the folder/message, and opens it in a background new tab.
Actual results:
In Thunderbird 116.0b1, clicking with the middle button has no effect: no selection, no new tab.
Expected results:
I would expect Supernova to implement the existing middle-click behaviour: select the folder/message, and open it in a new background tab.
The feature is particularly useful when the "Open messages in:" option is set to "A new message window": double-click will open in a new window, and middle-click in a new tab.

I can confirm this.

Just realised this is an almost-duplicate of bug 1836853, which mentions folders, but not messages.

With the title change from "Middle click on folder or message should open a tab" to "Reimplement middle click on message list to open tabs in background", we have lost the "on folder" part of the issue.
It probably make sense to keep the two separate. Should I open a new bug for the "Reimplement middle click on folder to open tabs in background" ?

Thanks for the offer! There is already a bug tracking that issue so it shouldn't be needed.
Ah, search failed me — or I need to learn how to use it 😅
Thank you!
