Open typed URLs in new tabs in Safari Beta 2

With Safari Beta 2, Apple tells us how to open links in new tabs by command-clicking on them, but the only documented method for opening a typed URL in a new tab is to open a new tab (command-T) and then type the URL in the new address bar.

However, you can simply type the URL in the address bar and hit command-return to open the typed URL in a new tab. This trick also works from the Google search box -- enter your search terms, command-return, and the results open in a new tab.

[robg adds: And it also works for links on the bookmark bar, though this may very well have been mentioned in the comments already to some of the other Safari Beta 2 hints...]
