I'm not sure what details I can add here. Worked in previous alpha versions, works in the latest regular release. etc etc.

In the latest alpha, it does not work, anywhere.

Wait, I should specify that it does not work to open tabs, links etc, but it will close tabs. Dunno if that helps.

Thanks.

Please provide exact steps of a situation where it should work but does not, for you.

When I click a link to open it, it does not work.
When I click bookmark to open it, it does not work.

I'm not sure what more I could provide. It's a mouse, a standard 3 button mouse(with wheel as middle button)
It has twp states, works or doesn't.

I didn't ask for a stock photo of a mouse that doesn't help in any way shape or form. We all know what a computer mouse looks like.

I just loaded up the current unstable Pale Moon. Middle-clicked links in pages, bookmarks, bookmarks toolbar entries, empty space on the tab bar, etc. -- no issues, all behavior is as expected and opens new tabs.
