User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux ppc; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0
Build ID: 20120410132944

Steps to reproduce:

Opened up a link from an external program, with Firefox already running.


Actual results:

It opened the link and brought Firefox to the front / foreground.


Expected results:

It should have opened the link in the background, so i can open up many
links quickly, as in previous versions of Firefox.

This is intentional. The old behaviour was incorrect, and was fixed in

Chris,

I thought so too, but the reporter at
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1984331 is dead sure that it's
a bug and not a feature request like I first said. Do I leave it, or
change it to feature request?

Muchas Gracias!
Evan Peck ;~)
