Emit "itemMiddleClicked" when Ctrl-clicking a view in single selection mode

Kai Uwe Broulik requested to merge kbroulik/ctrlclicknewtab into master

When Ctrl can't cause a change in selection, so instead emit itemMiddleClicked. This way one can Ctrl-click a Place or folder in Folders panel to open it in a new tab, similar to what web browsers.


I sometimes find myself instinctively Ctrl-clicking instead of middle-clicking the Places panel which currently does nothing.

  • Middle clicked on "Trash" in places panel, opened in a new tab
  • Ctrl to add to the selection in main view is unchanged
