That was a useful article. But I would prefer to (also here) open a new tab behind the ones already open. Could this also be done?

Chosen solution

If you want bookmarks to open in background tabs, change browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground to true in about:config.

If you want tabs to open in reversed order, install Open Tabs Next to Current.
