Make images easily clickable for full-size viewing

+3
−0

I want to propose a feature that makes embedded images easily clickable, allowing them to be opened in full size (ideally in a new tab or lightbox-style overlay).

Currently you have to right-click on the image to open up the context menu:

  • Copy Image Link -> open it in a separate tab
  • Open Image in New Tab

Example

This comment by Olin makes me believe that this procedure isn't very intuitive or well known.
(I wanted to respond to his comment, but wasn't able to, because as a new user, I can only comment on my own posts and answers to them.)

Middle click activates a vertical pan mode (https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/sz6uae9csbrj3tz4g1c707ri14h6).

I don't have a physical middle button, but with https://github.com/Infocatcher/Right_Links_WE it opens in a new tab just fine
