[Companion] Enhancement idea - allow right click on bookmark to open in new tab

I already have a version with right and middle click options in the 
works, but I am waiting on server updates before I finish it and make it 
available.  My current code opens a new window on right click, and new 
tab on middle click (see bug #8148 
<http://mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=8148>).  I had not thought about 
adding a context menu. 

Any preferences from the group?
