I think a better idea would be to move said button/"tab" to the left. Why the IE designers insisted on putting it to the right is beyond me. (Yeah, yeah, "discoverability"... but I think it'd do just as well on the left side.) I think that this button would be well-suited for placement on the tab bar. Something like the screenshot in this Firefox extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1456. ...Though I'm not sure how much hacking it would take in GTK+ to allow a button on a GTK notebook. _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
