    Bug 263845 resembles more a security feature than a bug.

    Call me crazy, but hoorah! The lack of anything separating the current / active tab from the page being viewed was the one and only thing bugging me about the default theme.

    Strangely if I right click a link and select Open Link in New Tab all I get is a blank new tab. If I go back to an earlier build everything is fine.

    Have I cocked something up?
