At other mobile sites without zoom possibility but with a too small link
to change the site to the desktop version it is absolutely impossible to
reach the link. But only the desktop version has the full information...

Title:
  Hard to tap links at the very bottom of webpage

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When touching the very bottom of the window, the webbrowser-app brings
  up the new-tab bottom-of-screen panel.  This means that if a webpage
  has links on the very bottom of the page, it is impossible to click
  them.

  Prior to r24, it was possible to deal with this by rotating to
  horizontal view, and tapping the link, since "bottom of the screen"
  was defined on one screen edge only.  However, since r24 brings full
  shell rotation, this is no longer the case.

  Example webpage where this affects the ability to navigate:
  http://forum.dlang.org/thread/mnp350$7ql$2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (scroll
  down to the bottom for the « First   ‹ Prev | Next ›   Last » links,
  these are now impossible to use).
