Right-Click-Link is a Firefox extension that opens selected text in a new tab.
Developer comments
Right-Click-Link allows you to select text on a web page, right-click and hit 'Open "selected text"'. The extension then opens a new tab and navigates to the address you selected. The extension is only useful on pages where there are URLs in the text that aren't linked.
