Description of the new feature/enhancement

The current behavior of the URL click option is to hold CTRL and left-click the URL. Please, please make this configurable such that we can choose our own method of opening URLs, e.g. left-click without CTRL, double-left-click, right-click, etc. Most importantly, I want to be able to single-left-click-without-holding-CTRL to open URLs.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Not sure if this a heavy request but how hard would it be to make it open links in incognito(maybe depending on some settings or Alt+left-clicking a link)?

That's probably impossible. We can only ask the OS to open your browser with a URL. We can't really make any assumptions about what browser that is, with which features.

I for one would be delighted to be able to right click on a link and get a menu to copy or open a link. Gnome terminal behaves this way.

I'd rather just be able to simply left-click URLs as I do in Putty Kitty (a Putty fork) and other terminals.

I use this: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9p7fsldkdxh3?hl=en-us&gl=US it asks before opening, and you can configure multiple browsers. LIFE SAVER!
