* Disable predictive text on the search field to ensure results are
filtered as the user types.

* Make a flaky unit test more robust by ensuring that the list view
has been updated before testing its contents.
* Silence the warnings issued by the favicon fetcher when the server
replies with an error. Those warnings can easily flood the console
when opening the history view, thus making it difficult to spot
legitimate console output.
* Updated translation template to include new strings for upcoming
branch that implements a context menu on tabs (wide mode).

* Use right icon in tab switcher to open a new tab when in private
mode
[ Ugo Riboni ]
* Implement search within the history view (only from the widescreen
version)
* Implement the visual refresh for the tabs in all screen modes.

Title:
[desktop] No context menu for text selection
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Since version 0.23+15.10.20150827.3-0ubuntu1, the context menu has
been overhauled to use the contextMenu API new in oxide 1.8, which
allows access to more contextual information, including the currently
selected text on the page. However the menu implementation doesn’t
take advantage of that, and doesn’t offer any contextual action for
text selection.
This is not yet visible for end users as text selection with a mouse
didn’t work until very recently (bug #1459392), and the fix will be
released with oxide 1.9. When oxide 1.9 is out, text selection with a
mouse will work in the browser, so we should have contextual actions
for it (copy and share, I guess).
