Two toolbars by default is using up a large piece of precious screen real estate. Furthermore many of the functions of the first toolbar are hardly used and simply can confuse first time users. My proposal is to have just one toolbar just like firefox.
Can someone provide the reason why it's two again? I have a suspicion it was something to do with "small screens", but perhaps there was another reason.
The relevant thread is here: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/epiphany-list/2003-April/msg00071.html Related bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105983 For the lazy reader, the key argument from that bug reads: 1 The Toolbar and Address Bar being welded together, leaving no room for any buttons besides the standard four (Back, Forward, Stop, and Reload) 2 Even for advanced users, the toolbar layout is annoying. The shortened address field doesnt show as much of a URI, and the auto-completion menu doesnt show as much of an auto-completion title, as it does in competing browsers.
