When I click on a URL in Evolution, it opens a tab in my existing
browser rather than opening a new window. This is easily controllable
via a preference (which is presumably new in Firefox 1.5), but
represents a change in default behavior.
I don't know that we want to change the Firefox 1.5 default, but this
might be good for consultants to know about in some form. The
relevant preference is at the top of the "Tabs" area of the Edit ->
Preferences dialog.
