The second one seems to be only called by khtmlpart when Shift-MMB clicking an
URL which atm means "open in new background window" and is known by few users.

I would love to leave it unchanged as escape when you have activated "Open 
links in new tab instead of in new window". This one could by changed to a 
combobox "Open in Window/Tab/Background Tab". Override for this is RMB menu.

Create KAction with proper shortcut, insert in correct collection and connect
it to the slot. But Shift+Left/Right shortcuts seem not possible to assign. :(

See KMessagebox, the dontAskAgainName parameters. 
But there have to be a GUI in the control center to reenable it!

Neither do I. :-)
