How do I get "Open link in new tab" at the top of the right-click menu?

Close Mozilla (including quick launch).
In C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\chrome, unzip comm.jar. Back it up first.
Open the file \content\communicator\contentAreaContextOverlay.xul in Notepad.
Change the position of these two sections to look like this: 

      <menuitem id="context-openlinkintab"
                label="&openLinkCmdInTab.label;"
                accesskey="&openLinkCmdInTab.accesskey;"
                oncommand="gContextMenu.openLinkInTab();"/>
      <menuitem id="context-openlink"
                label="&openLinkCmd.label;"
                accesskey="&openLinkCmd.accesskey;"
                oncommand="gContextMenu.openLink();"/>

Replace the original file with the edited one, and zip up comm.jar.
