[Bug 27430] Re: Firefox deletes the clipboard on startup; middle-click paste also broken

[Julius Schwartzenberg]

To fix the middleclick problem in your profile, you should go to
about:config in Firefox and change the setting:
middlemouse.contentLoadURL to true.

Quite a painful bug indeed. Because this behaviour is something that can
generally expected from a browser (and also works fine in every other
browser I tried in Ubuntu). It gives Firefox a bad mark in Ubuntu. I
know that bugs shouldn't be filled with notes such as these, but I feel
this could hurt Firefox unfairly when compared to the other browsers
Ubuntu offers, because for users it may not be clear from first sight
it's a really a mistake and not actually intended.
