Please consider setting TBB's default 'middlemouse.contentLoadURL' (in
about:config) from 'true' to 'false'.
When copying and pasting personal URLs that could contain personally
identifiable information or link to said information the default behavior
of a privacy minded browser should focus toward privacy and security over
the ease and convenience of a loading URLS with a single button click.
This default behavior often occurs by mistake when missing a middle mouse
click on a link (to open in a new tab).
