Bug Description

Distribution: Ubuntu-Gnome 14.04 (i686)
Midori version 0.5.8
libcairo2 version 1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1
libglib2.0-0 version 2.40.0-2
libgtk2.0-0 version 2.24.23-0ubuntu1.1
libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 version 2.4.3-1ubuntu2

This seems to happen when the user repeatedly clicks with the main mouse button near an image (link) until hits the link. The link opens, but some blank tabs too.

To reproduce, this Seeks page is useful:
http://seeks.kafe-in.net/
Repeat clicks fast and from near bottom of the magnifier (search) icon, simultaneously moving up until hitting the icon link.

This causes problems with some web applications, such as TePeVe, when user presses repeatedly some visual element intended to increment/decrement a value in the CMS.

Middle-button double-click causes the same effect.
