 Testing beta build 8.2-760, Firefox-6 Activity.

 Right-click on a link is supposed to pop up a menu from which I can select
 "Open Link in a New Tab".  It works most of the time, but occasionally I
 get an incorrect response, such as:

 - create a clipboard object, or[[BR]]
 - asks me if I want to create a bookmark, or[[BR]]
 - opens link in new window (could confuse users!)[[BR]]

 These are actions from the pop-up menu for right-click, even though I did
 not select them with a second click. Reminds me of false starts during the
 Beijing Olympics (a.k.a. 'jumping the gun').

 We should see if any similar problem shows up in other activities. I
 started noticing this problem now because I was doing a lot of tabbed
 browsing in Firefox, for the first time in weeks.
