But this (I think) opens a new blank tab, which is not what I want. I like having my homepage (google) loaded in each new tab, and I want it (and not the location bar) to be focused. I just want the location bar to remain blank (just like when I first start epiphany) so that if I decide not to use google, I can do so easily.
