Title:
  when opening a new tab, always switch to it

Status in Nautilus:
  Fix Released
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  Nautilus supports tabs now. To open a new tab you middle-click a
  folder. Yet, I find myself switching to new tabs right after opening
  them, 99% of the times. That's two actions I have to perform, so I
  think it would be handier to automatically switch to new tabs.

  You might argue that web browsers don't do this. I think the user case
  is different here: with web browsers, I usually open a link on a new
  tab because I want to keep reading the current page but I might read
  something on the new tab afterwards. If I open a tab on Nautilus,
  that's usually because I want to do something on the new tab now but
  might go back to the old tab later.
