How can we improve Primo?

New UI - allow full results to be opened in a new tab

In the old interface and in summon it is possible to open full details pages in a new tab while keeping the full results list open.

In the new ui this is not possible. As one of our academics says
"I prefer to review the results page first, opening potentially useful results in new tabs (using 'ctrl+click' ) so that they load 'in the background'. Then I can review each tab without disrupting the original search results (and come back to them later if necessary). "

In the new UI the full record opens over the results list and has to be closed to get back to the results list. The only way to get the record to open in a new tab is to us right click "open in new tab", which is less efficient.

    Primo VE:
    Works on Windows PC as you describe.

    On my Mac Laptop, "cmd&enter" doesn't work. Which
    a) is what I usually use for 'open in new tab'
    b) works fine for the links in the main menu

    "ctrl&enter" opens the list where I then have to choose 'Open in New Tab'.

    Chrome and Firefox.
