Provide "Open in New Tab" when right-clicking over link, or in Fav

In order to open a new Favorite in a new tab, it would be much quicker if the
right-click context menu provided an "Open in New Tab" function. It appears
that in its present form it is necessary to open the new tab first, then open
favorites.

Also, clicking on a link in an e-mail, such as in Outlook, seems always to
open a new window. The same convenience could be provided here by
right-clicking the link, and choosing "Open in New Tab"

The Favorites Centre has an 'open in new tab' option on right click.

In my installation, when I open the Favorites drop-down list, and then
Right-click over a selection, I get a menu with the following:

Open
Print
Make Available offline
Send to >
Cut
Copy
Create Shortcut
Delete
Rename
Sort by Name
Properties

Where is "open in new tab"??

In the Favorites Centre, not the dropdown list:

I found that in order to make the "Open in New Tab" option appear in the
right click context menu, I had to disable the Google toolbar.

I would like to see in Internet Options full control of how windows open,
whether you want new windows, new tabs, or pop up windows. It would be nice
to set the default for Favorites, or links, or popups, to open where I want
without using Menu options. Only techies like key sequences of 2 to 5 keys to
do things. I like to set defaults for one click response.
