does not work on some pages when using middle mouse buttonΒ #7

Description

@ossilator

go to a page that offers pdf downloads (e.g. this one) and middle-click one of download links.
the extension is plain ineffective in that case.

however, when selecting "open link in new tab/window" from the download link's context menu, it works just fine.

so obviously, these two methods are somehow subtly different, even though they really shouldn't be.

the competing No PDF Download extension has the same problem, so this is clearly a "browser thing".
however, i don't expect them to fix this without a prior analysis by an affected downstream, so i'm bugging you first. πŸ˜‡
and maybe you can just work around it somehow ...

this is with brave browser 1.77.97. it's not a new issue.
