Just for the record, I strongly disagree. Most of the time, if I had to
go hunt for a new tab at a very long string of existing tabs, it would
be *extremely annoying* ;-).

The one use case where I would actually prefer to have the tabs append
is when I want to perform a breadth-first reading of a Google search.
I'll use mouse-2 to select some interesting pages. As I'm reading those
pages, I'll use mouse-2 to select some interesting pages I find there,
but I don't want to read those until I'm done with the original hits. In
this use case, a configuration setting wouldn't be as useful as, say,
C-mouse-2 (a separate command).

Not only does a configuration setting not help this use case, the
setting would cause a problem in the interpretation of C-mouse-2.

I think it would be cleaner if mouse-2 inserted pages (as it does now)
and C-mouse-2 appended them, without a configuration setting.

Elladan, would this work for you?
