i open windows with the middle click all the time, it's useful when
following posts on a discussion board or any hierarchy with many links. If
you click and use the back button, you have to wait for Netscape to verify
the page is still up-to-date, possibly reload, and re-render the entire
hierarchy.

Since the Debian maintainters have taken Navigator to libc5, i haven't had
much trouble with bus errors when closing windows. Before then, it
happened all the time.

This has been checked, and the wm seems to make little to no difference.
Check the archives.
