[Bug 1025404] [NEW] ubuntu-mods.js overrides user-setting of middlemouse.contentLoadURL

[Andy Spiegl]

Public bug reported:

ubuntu-mods.js contains the line
 pref("middlemouse.contentLoadURL", false);
which does not allow the user to permanently set this option to true.
After every restart of firefox the user has to open "about:config" and
reset the value to true.

I don't see why this line is part of this package.
Is there anything bad about easy pasting of urls to the browser?

It's not even documented anywhere, is it?
It took me a long time to find the cause.

Please remove this setting or make it optional.
Thanks,
 Andy.
