Bug Description
Dear friends,
I'd like to see the feature to disable tabs altogether.
I like my window manager and I want it to handle all my different open apps, documents and sites. Offloading this job to a single app, which is what tabs are, is counter-productive for me.
But Firefox doesn't have the feature to disable tabbed browsing.
Thanks,
Shahar

I want Firefox to never use tabs, ever. Whenever a new window is requested (e.g., middle-click) I want it to open in a new window instead of a tab.
"Preferences / New pages should open in / A new window" is insufficient. Middle-click and option-click still open the link in a new tab.
This doesn't fix it either. It used to: "browser. tabs.opentabfor .middleclick" , false);

This broke sometime between 1.0 and 2.0.0.5. It is still broken in 3.0.
