Allow different handling of left and middle-click on the addon button #339

Open ModProg opened 1 year ago

ModProg commented 1 year ago

Problem Statement

I'd like to have an easy way to both stash all tabs or show the stashed tabs using the mouse. Currently, it is necessary to open the context menu if you want to do something that was not assigned as the primary action of the button.

Preferred Solution(s)

Allow to bind middle-click and left-click individually in the settings, i.e. allow making one stash all tabs and the other show stash.

Additional Context

Not sure if this is possible, i.e. if Firefox allows accessing the mouse-button that clicked the add-on toolbar icon.

Seems like it should be possible; Firefox's API claims it works:

There is also support for modifier keys (e.g. Ctrl+Click).

Thanks for the feature request, I'll keep it in mind!
