Getting to last post using RMB with Firefox

Now that we can click on the right hand date to get to end of thread, another problem. That, as a RMB click in Ffox, always brings up that dialog (which Snipping Tool won't allow me to capture) which has forward and back arrows, refresh circular arrow, and favourties star in its top row. It takes several tries to get the desired dialog which has 'open in new tab'. Everywhere else, with RMB the desired dialog comes up reliably; the behaviour described only happens when RMB clicking on that right hand date.

    Hmmm... I know you have had issues with Firefox before that we could not reproduce -- this looks like another one, as every time I float my cursor over the date (and see the cursor change decoration indicating a hyperlink), when I click a right mouse button, I see this:

    every time. The only time I can get it to NOT do that is when I am not in "this is a link" mode.

    It looks like that for this date text as clickable link, the on-screen target area, within which the arrow turns to pointing finger, is very narrow, just along the top edge of the text. It's hard to hit with a click; otherwise the other dialog comes up, the one you get when clicking in empty space in Ffox. The problem usually disappears at medium to large zoom-in; then the entire text height seems to be clickable - but that adjustment is sometimes not immediate after the zoom-in.
