Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.18.0-1
Severity: minor
The previous version (2.14 I think; unstable) version of epiphany had a
nice property I'm missing now: when I created a new tab, it kept the
location field empty. I know the URL of my 'home' page quite well
anyway.
So if I wanted to e.g. Google for some term, I could create a new tab,
paste my clipboard into the location bar and pick the appropriate
smartbookmark from the dropdown.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work with 2.18 anymore: when I create a new
tab, the location bar will show http://www.google.com/, and I can't just
paste my pastebuffer there right away. I liked the old behaviour better.
(Note that I'm not talking about pasting URLs; I'm aware of the
paste-to-new tab functionality.)

Hi,
> Looks like there are some different views on this matter upstream....
I figured so...
I found the Clear context menu option; but I liked the old behaviour
better. Feel free to tag the bug "wontfix" because it probably violates
Gnome HIG...
IMHO the toolbar widget proposed (I think konqueror has that) is
crap. :-)
> (And as a work around, you can of course simply set the home page to
> blank)
Actually I like having the regular Google page as Homepage, so I can
just press Ctrl+T and start searching with it; it is my most common
function, after all. So this workaround is quite kludgy.
But thank you - actually it's nice... I just tried it, and it has one
big benefit: focus is not in the Google search box, but in the location
bar. So I can type right away... Ctrl+T, type, enter. better than ever
before.
best regards,
Erich Schubert
