Middle-clicking on toolbar buttons should focus the new tab

Description
One of the annoyances for me with Epiphany vs. Firefox is how Epiphany handles middle-clicking on toolbar buttons.
Middle-clicking the home, back and forward buttons in Epiphany opens the links in new tabs in the background. Firefox, on the other hand, opens the links in new tabs and also focuses them.
I think Firefox's behaviour is better here. Clicking on those buttons means that you really want to see the links they are pointing to right now. For example, if I do a google search and I want to save those results for later, I'll middle-click on the Home button which takes me to www.google.se and type in a new search. In Epiphany I have to first middle-click Home, then focus the new tab which Epiphany opens in the background.
