Title:
  Up button lacks navigation along sub-domains

Status in Epiphany Browser:
  New
Status in “epiphany-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

  (This is more of a "Blueprint" than a bug; however, Blueprints seem to
  be disabled for the ephiphany-browser package.)

  One of the things I love about Epiphany is it's simplicity and speed:
  it has all the essential features of a web browser, and runs much
  quicker than other browsers on my system.  One feature I consider
  essential is the "up" navigation.  On Firefox, the extension "uppity,"
  as well as the Google Toolbar, implement this feature very well.  I am
  pleased to see Epiphany includes this feature natively, and I mostly
  satisfied with the current behavior.  In addition to the current
  behavior, I propose that the "up" navigation move up from sub-domains.
  For example, if I am at the following url:

  http://debtorrent.alioth.debian.org/

  When I press "up", I expect to move to the following location:

  http://alioth.debian.org/

  Another move "up" should place me at:

  http://debian.org/

  And here it stops.  Currently, I don't see a way to move "up"
  subdomains.  This is the natural and expected interpretation of "up",
  as many websites use sub-domains in addition to folders for their
  hierarchy.

  Distribution: 8.04.2 LTS
  Package name: epiphany-browser
  Package version: 2.22.2-0ubuntu0.8.04.5 (from `apt-cache policy epiphany-browser`)

  P.S.  If this feature appears in 8.10 or 9.04, please let me know.
  Hopefully we can get it in 8.10.3 LTS.

  Cheers,
  James Carroll
