I'm using Precise 64 bit with Firefox 23.0. I've also tried the nightly
build of firefox-trunk (version 26.0a1) but the bug wasn't fixed in
that. I'm baffled by how the status of this bug against Global Menubar
Extension is 'Fix committed' when that addon seems now to have been
withdrawn for Ubuntu.

I've reported this bug as bug 913556 against Firefox in Bugzilla.
Judging by the number of bugs in Firefox which are not allocated, I
wonder if it will ever be fixed!

Re David Marzal's suggestion of using the addon bug582139: I've
installed it & restarted Firefox, clicked View>Toolbars>Customise but I
don't see any Bookmarks icon with an arrow by it in the popup containing
icons. Nor do I see it anywhere else. If I use the standard Bookmarks
icon, I still get the same incorrect behaviour.

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
