when using "use:link" middle click will not work about svelte-spa-router HOT 5 CLOSED

@TorstenDittmann thanks for the PR.

I've been thinking about this, and I'm wondering if the best way would actually be to change the handler so it actually modifies the href element rather than waiting for a click? Otherwise, we'd have to support a lot of cases, such as middle button click, right-click and then "open in new tab", etc...

Thoughts?

Could this be solved by looking for the missing hash and additionally maybe the length of window.history?

Edit: That approach didn't make any sense...

One solution that comes to my mind would be catching the event when somebody clicks with the middle button. The easiest solution would be, redirecting in the current tab when using middle click. But overwriting the behaviour of middle clicks would bug me as a user.

I would love to work on that.

Created a Pull request that handles middle clicks like normal clicks => #34

Okay, that makes more sense.

Updated my PR #34 for a proposed solution, where every link gets the # in the href.

edit: removed EventListener for links now.

I think this is the same issue?

<a href="/line/{line.id}" use:link>

When I control or shift click, to open in a new tab or new window, it just opens it in the same tab.

If I use <a href="#/line/{line.id}"> then it seems the router works properly and there's no extra page loads from a full refresh.

Is this a bug to be fixed?
