Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

On the web client, middle clicking on a post in a feed opens the post in a new tab. However, when viewing a post, the posts that are replies to the head post can't be middle clicked in the same way. Despite the mouse icon changing into a hand as if the posts are links, middle clicking does nothing.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add the capability to open a post in the replies of another post in a new tab with a mouse's middle click.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Middle clicking on the time of a post works as expected. However, that is a smaller target than the body of a post.
