Since the latest update (8.01), I've been unable to open links in new tabs without dragging the link up to the tab bar. Alt-clicking the link and clicking 'open in new tab' opens the link in a new window instead (The 'open in new window' works as it should). Also, middle button clicking opens in new window, even though I have the 'Open new windows in a new tab instead' selected in the tabs option menu.
