When using CTRL+click (or CMD+click on macOS) to open a menu item in a new tab, the loading transition was incorrectly triggered in the current tab. This caused the current tab to show a loading skeleton that never resolved, making the tab unusable.

The loading transition now checks for modifier keys and skips activation when the user intends to open a link in a new tab or window.
