Firefox 57: Pinned Tabs: "Open Link in New Tab" order changed?

Hello:

In Firefox 56, opening a link in a new tab from a pinned tab (e.g. from a pinned tab, ctrl-click a link) would open the new tab at the end (Pinned Tabs followed by existing non-pinned tabs followed by the just recently opened tab from the pinned tab). Made it easy to jump to it via ctrl-9 shortcut.

In Firefox 57, this behavior changed and opening a link in a new tab from a pinned tab will open the new tab immediately after the group of pinned tabs (Pinned Tabs followed by just recently opened tab from the pinned tabs followed by existing non-pinned tabs).

Is there any configuration setting to change this behavior back?

Thanks
