I think it is all the same bug, the inability to use middle or right
click on the bookmarks.

For me the workaround is this extension:
https://addons.mozilla.org/es-ES/firefox/addon/bug582139/?src=api

Whit the bookmark button you can use all the options.

  Can't middle or right click on bookmarks to open in new tab

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  With the new menu placed above the firefox window, I can no longer
  middle click a bookmark from the bookmarks menu to open in a new tab.
  No matter whether I left, middle or right click, it is treated as a
  left click and opens in my currently open tab.

  Steps to reproduce:
  Click "Bookmarks" menu and middle-click one of your bookmarks

  What should happen:
  That bookmark opens in a new tab

  What actually happens:
  That bookmark opens in the current tab
