@cattyattie While still a useful function that is not what I was refering to.
This would work if you wanted to open the currently visited page in a new tab, which is one of the things you could do with Alt+Enter before and no longer can now, so this at least solves that issue.
But it would still not solve the issue of selecting something from the drop-down and hitting Alt+Enter to open that in a new tab. Like when I type in "Halo" and then hit the up-arrow the youtube video in the screenshots below.
Middle mouse button works fine but Alt+Enter does not.
