ctrl click (for new tab) is prevented (and instead loaded in the small sidebar) for the changeset links in http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/aseerel4c26/history

stop messing around with my user interface

I can make this work, but only by suppressing the inline load when ctrl is held down, and it's not at clear that it is correct to do that on all browsers... It is only really correct on those browsers where ctrl is defined to cause a load in a new window.

Thanks Tom, not tested of course.

However, you can imagine what that means for the current design. ;-) A mix of real links and fake links (even showing a URL as target - good side: at least allowing middle click to open a new tab).

Thanks Tom! Ctrl and Shift as modifier (and Firefox) work again as expected.

It is not completely working. It does work when you click on the changeset description but it doesn't on the changeset-number (while a single left click on the number gets you to the changeset). I was used to click on the changeset number and thought this didn't work at all, until I found this ticket and found out that the changeset-description link worked.

This is a browser limitation - some browsers (at least Firefox, maybe others) do not generate click events for things which are not links if you are holding a modifier key. So it's out of our control really, at least unless we make that an actual link, but that still wouldn't help with the rest of the clickable area.
