Typically, a right-click on a menu brings up a set of actions, one of
which could be "Open All Bookmarks in Tabs".  Similarly, I'd like to see
a middle click on a bookmark open the bookmark in a new tab, or, on a
group, all bookmarks.

The key is that you assign actions to a right or middle click, to
maintain the semantics of the menu.
