Open new/background tab with Shift/Ctrl even with JavaScript functions

Sometimes, a web site catches a mouse click to show the result page. In this case, Shift/Ctrl to open it in a new or background tab does not work.

As an example, take facebook's notification window at the top. If you click multiple messages using Ctrl-Shift, it does not work, and the first click opens the message in the same tab. Disabling JavaScript helps though (which is unacceptable for facebook of course).

I'd like to suggest that instead ALL navigation to different URLs opens in a new/background tab if Shift/Ctrl is pressed, not the click itself, but all navigation caused by scripts, until these keys are released again. So the click behaves as expected.
