Title:
  All restored tabs are loaded at startup

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in Web Browser App:
  In Progress
Status in “webbrowser-app” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When restoring a previous browsing session, a new tab is restored for
  each previously open tab, and a webview is instantly instantiated and
  loaded. With a large number of open tabs, this probably makes the
  startup time of the application longer, consumes more memory right
  away, and if on mobile data consumes more MBs too.

  Only the webview for the first tab should be instantiated at first,
  other tabs should be empty placeholders which trigger the
  instantiation of the corresponding webview on demand.

  This means we’re going to need to save and restore the title for each
  open tab (we’re currently saving and restoring only the current URL).
