Not sure if you understood me.  I'm not a big fan of the Go button either.  I
was referring to the Go menu in the menu bar.  Middle clicking on a page that
I've visted recently from that list loads in the current window instead of a
new tab.

If I've copied a URL from another application/terminal etc. I would like to
be able to middle click on the 'new tab' button, it would then load my copied
url in the background while I'm still reading the current page.

Opera 7 has this if you wanna check it out.
 
Also there used to be Forward and Back buttons with the drop down menus with
the history.  I thought they was pretty useful, are there plans to bring them
back?

Currently to close Galeon and save my session (to have it restore my tabs on
reload) I'm resorting to killing the processes by hand.  Is there plans to
readd the 'save session' option in the file menu?

Thanks for your response!  I will file those bug reports as asked.
 
Thanks!
