A common task is for me to open a new tab, then click on the Home button. Adding this feature would eliminate one step. This concept could possibly be carried to other buttons as the toolbar becomes more customizeable. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.CTRL+click or SHIFT+click on the Home button in the toolbar Actual Results: The home page opens in the current tab or window instead of a new one, as one might expect. Expected Results: Open the home page in a new tab or window, depending on the key held.
