Description Juraj 2019-01-26 10:40:31 UTC 
SUMMARY
Hello,
when opening link with not clean URL with mouse middle button, this url is not cleaned which results in mixing the link url with current url.

Example of wring link:
> <a href=" https://kde.org/">My cute link</a>

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Falkon, create webpage or go to example site and check links in "Additional info:" section:
   https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/61513?project=1&string=ghostscript
2. Use mouse middle butten to open the link in new tab
3. Observe result

OBSERVED RESULT
Falkon opens new tab with url which containt <current url> + <link url> which in most cases results in loading wrong page.
The url is processed fine when opening with mouse left button or with context menu option "Open link in new tab".

EXPECTED RESULT
Falkon should clean url before opening it.
