Ctrl+Shift+click and Shift+Middle-click works.
But not like before.
Now, it opens a tab up and shifts focus to that tab, where as before, it opened it in the background. Not a total deal breaker for me but I sure don't like it. Sure I can use the right-click option of "Open link in new tab." But that is sooo much slower.
OOPS. Just discovered (By accident) that I can use ctrl-click to open in the background. Good deal.
2 big keyboard shortcuts I used all the time.
alt-a close page and switch to next page
alt-z reopen page
Sure wish I could have those 2 back.
