Well, many have said worse things about Mozilla...
The original "feature" was a bug. The UI pref had always
said, Ctrl+enter. The fact that enter alone did the same thing was, well, a
bug. That said, however, people, such as youself, liked the bug so much they
created a new feature request bug. From what I read of it, the
new feature will cause <enter> to open a new tab, while <Ctrl>-<enter> will
open in the same tab. And, as I mentioned earlier, there will not be a UI for
it, you'd have to edit user.js (or some such pref file) to enable it.
