Details

(Note: this is filed as part of the “Paper Cut” bugs — we assume that there may be multiple existing bugs on this. Please make them block this bug, and we will de-dupe if they are indeed exactly the same. Thanks!) To reproduce: 1. open Firefox on a mac 2. right click on the dock icon 3. notice the lack of options Recommendation: Add some contextual options to the context menu on the OSX Dock Icon. Specifically add an option to open a new window.
New Window should be fixed on trunk bug 415463. I don't have a Mac to verify that it is fixed.
Depends on: 415463
Bug 415463 is verified fixed (and I can confirm that, if anyone doubts)

I think we should support the same operations as the jump list implementation on Windows does, so these make the same operations available. (Whether that's currently anything else than New Window I don't know, here's a good overview of what Opera supports: http://my.opera.com/portalnews/blog/2010/03/27/take-full-advantage-of-windows-7-with-opera )
This issue is fixed, I can confirm that it is fixed. We should either mark it as closed or rename the description. We should look into the options we want and try to make the same set of changes for windows and mac (and any OS with similar integration features).
