At least on Chrome, bbc.com is hijacking middle-clicks and opening them in the same window. Who there thought that was a good idea?!

That's the first time I've seen that one. If you're a web designer, please do not do that.

It's done that for years. The BBC UK news site is the same, hugely infuriating.
