Description

https://www.reddit.com/r/uMatrix/comments/fvk1p5/root_document_rules_are_not_being_applied_to/

Using "doc block" rule: * * doc block

When I open a link via "new tab" uMatrix does not stop me from going to an unknown site. However, when I open the link by just clicking, the site does not load (the "uMatrix has prevented the following page from loading" warning appears).

From log it looks like this doc request is classified as behind-the-scene.

Toggling matrix-off: behind-the-scene to false block the request (log says so), but page is blank (and for some reason I see page preview in tabs view, but can be cached thumbnail). Reloading makes it about:blank.

Dev version of uM also opens blank page.
