Description Philippe Beaudette 2010-04-21 07:14:20 UTC 
When pressing control+link to open a link in a new tab, Mediawiki is both opening the link in the new tab AND forwarding the existing tab to the linked page... acting as though I'd simply normally pressed the link, rather than control+clicking it.

Trevor, (who is sitting next to me at #ashcon), says that click tracking is at fault, most likely.

Instead of redirecting the user on the click event, maybe we could change the href of the link? Does that work?
Comment 2 Trevor Parscal 2010-04-21 13:31:30 UTC 
Resolved in r65379. Needs to be deployed at some point.
