I started writing a .desktop file then I noticed there was one in debian/...
Seeing what epiphany and iceweasel have in theirs, I'd suggest the following patch: - add WebBrowser (it is one) and GTK (it uses it) categories, like epiphany. - add the URL schemes as fake MIME types, as both do. BTW, I do also have a /usr/share/applications/epiphany-newtab.desktop here, which opens urls in a new tab on the current window. Not sure which changes would be needed to have NS tell an existing instance to add a tab in the GTK code though. François.
