uMatrix doesn't show the actually used hosts file if you middle click the link to it

In this case you can see that uMatrix always shows an outdated version.
uMatrix

uBlock Origin

Note: It shows the updated host file only when you left-click the link.
Firefox 44.02
uMatrix 0.9.3.2
uBlock Origin v1.6.2

How did you open the list, left-click or middle-click?

Left-click will cause uMatrix to see the resource through the asset viewer, while with middle-click Firefox bypasses uMatrix's JS code and open the nominal link under the mouse.

Oh I see. I middle clicked/ draged the link to a new tab. Just left-click shows the uddated list

[towlie]

Hm shall I reopen? Because this is a different behaviour compared to ublock.

Sure, just change the title to reflect the real issue, the current title might cause unneeded worries.
