(ancestor page = the page from which the new tab has been opened). This would be totally unobtrusive; no UI elements would need to be added. There are firefox add-ons for this function: tab history (outdated) and tabberwoky (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/14439/) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Follow a few links 2.open a link in a new tab via context-menu Actual Results: The page in the new tab has a blank history Expected Results: the history of the "ancestor" page should be inherited.
