If I wanted this kind of extended consciousness, I'd do some yoga, or
light a candle. Or maybe get a Nokia Lumia :-)

No, seriously, this means it's still a bug, just a design bug rather
than an implementation bug.

full URL anyway, this ensures that at least the domain name is visible.

Ermm.... or display the _beginning_ of the string, rather than the end
(and optionally skip the protocol, if that's an issue)? It doesn't real
take a genius to figure that one out, now does it... ? Or what was your
point?

Title:
  Full URL of page not shown unless user clicks on it

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  By default, the browser only shows the host name of the page. However,
  the full URL is shown when clicking on it.

  There's really no reason to do this, so why not show the entire URL
  all the time (or at least as much of it as fits in the URL bar)

  What I expected to happen:
    URL should be visible entirely all the time (or at least as much as fits)

  What happened instead:
    Only host name of page is shown. Rest of URL is only shown after clicking on it.
