Using version 0.2.1

Feature request: please add support to opening articles in new tab/window using middle mouse button and keyboard shortcuts

Current behavior:
Ctrl + click on article link => article opening in the same tab as current tab, expected: to open in a new background tab
Ctrl + Shift + click on article link => article opening in the same tab as current tab, expected: to open in a new foreground tab
Shit + click on article link => article opening in the same tab as current tab, expected: to open in a new foreground window
Middle mouse press on article link => article opening in the same tab as current tab, expected: to open in a new background tab

Thanks for reporting this. The behavior you're saying was in place to work around an issue where Firefox opened every link launched from the sidebar in a new tab. I'll investigate whether the workaround can be removed or scored down so as not to interfer with the expected behavior

Thanks again for reporting this. The fix will ship in the next release!

Thank you!
