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 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.

I can't replicate this; clicking with my mouse wheel button on a non-text area of my buddy doesn't close it, it just shows a scrolling button. However, your solution sounds like something we should do regardless, so I've added it to the list.

Hmm. I don't seem to be able to replicate the issue in Chrome, but in Firefox, it happens consistently. Gotta love the differences between browsers, eh?
