When I first read the post, my reaction was: "Throbber? WTF is he talking about?" So I opened up epiphany, watched my toolbar closely and found out there's some spinnging icon on the right of the toolbar. AFAIK this is the first time I noticed this thing was there. I'm using epiphany since the first public release. My choice would be to remove it: In all these years I haven't even seen this thing, so why would I miss it in the future? One reason to keep it: it doesn't make the toolbar bigger than it has to be. If it would be a big logo that scales up the toolbar to make it fit, it would have to go for sure. Since the throbber is scaled to fit the toolbar size, it's not a big problem to have it there. _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
