This is quite annoying, so I'm reporting it as a bug:

  1. Open the Buddy.
  2. Hover over a thread in the list but don't do it directly on text.
  3. Click using the mouse wheel.

Expectation: The thread is opened in a new tab.

Reality: The Buddy is closed. The thread is not opened in any tab.

The problem is that it's so easy to miss the text part and accidentally close the Buddy by clicking with the mouse wheel. Technically, the best solution would be to make the <a> element fill the whole parent element, since it's guaranteed to work in all situations since it's a real link instead of a hack.
