Summary: [faceted search] ctrl+enter/click in "search everywhere" should show search results in new tab → [faceted search] Ctrl+Global Search ("Search all messages") should show search results in new tab (Ctrl+Enter, Ctrl+Autocomplete)
STR 1) Hold Ctrl while triggering a global search (typically from the "Search All Messages" global search box above an existing faceted search result): a) Ctrl+Enter after typed global search terms in the "Search all Messages" box widget b) Ctrl+Enter on global search autocomplete entry c) Ctrl+Click on global search autocomplete entry Actual Result a) Nothing b) and c) currently open in a new tab, but only because of Bug 716058. After fixing that bug, recheck here for the correct behaviour of b) and c). Expected Result a)b)c) Open global search results in a new tab Fix bug 716058 to make the behaviour transparent and consistent, especially for global searches from an existing faceted search results tab: - global search without accelerator will always open in same tab (except from 3pane, where we always open in a new tab) - global search with accelerator Strg / Cmd will always open in new tab (this bug)
