Since Google Chrome was invented - I have never again used Firefox as my default browser until the Quantum update - I love it and I'm using FF for work, home and mobile ~ looks amazing and I love the new logo~!

The only thing I don't like is that since Chrome has "open in new tab" as the 1st option for bookmarks - I keep clicking the 1st option and destroying my current tab session, switching to the bookmark I want to open in a new tab...

I know there used to be an extension that changed the left-click action of bookmarks to open in a new tab, but that extension doesn't work with the new version of FF.

Is there a way to switch the order of the 1st 2 menu-items in the FF right-click-on-a-bookmark menu?

(If I wanted the 1st option 'open' - I'd just click it, I literally never need that option.

..and in web-pages, the 1st right-click option on links is "open in new tab"??

so just 'getting used to it' between Chrome / FF isn't a valid argument for the terrible design, because within FF it's inconsistent anyway?
