I want stay on current tab, like when I use Gleam on IE. Has Chrome not added option to disable automatic switching to new tab? Are the forum posts under correct? This Reddit post no help.
How can I stop Chrome from auto switching to new tabs? : chrome
Unfortunately, middle click, right click + open new tab, and Ctrl-click don't always work - if the link also triggers something on the site or the site restricts alternate clicks then; middle, right, and Ctrl-clicks don't work.

Gleam is one main site that springs to mind - middle and right clicking are disabled.

@Deranox: You can't right now. Rather, use one of the other options to open a background tab. 1) select "open link in new background tab" from the context menu (second choice), 2) use middle-click on the link with your mouse; 3) use Ctrl+leftclick on the link with your mouse, 4) designate a mouse gesture to open a background tab when you perform it over a link.
