When I middle click a link it goes into the background tab. It seems like middle click should do the same thing as what you have Apple - Click configured to do.

Same problem here.
There must be some hidden preference. OmniGuys...?

No hidden preference to customize the behavior. You can turn this off with the defaults write:

defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniWeb5 MiddleClickLoadsTab -bool false

you could then customize customize the middle mouse button via your mouse driver software.

Is this omnigroups stance on this then? is this issue considered resolved?

Well what you're asking for is a new feature, we're happy to consider it, I'll file it in our database right now. As a workaround and if you have mouse drivers that allow it, you can always bind the middle button to Command-Left Click and turn off the hidden preference above.

Actually there's one already there, so I added your vote :)

I think the main issue here is that 5.5 is focused on integrating WebKit not adding unrelated features, so troy's response was intended to mean--not in 5.5.

Any update on this?
