[Bug 1517131] Re: The browser still requests mobile version of sites even in desktop mode

 

Device: Nexus 7 (flo)
Channel: rc-proposed

URLs: facebook.com, youtube.com

Simply, the browser still presents itself as a mobile browser even though Unity 8 is in windowed/desktop mode.
The UA for the browser I think should automatically switch as well.

Title:
  The browser still requests mobile version of sites even in desktop
  mode

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Accessing sites with mobile version such as Facebook and Youtube still
  shows the mobile version eventhough the UI is in desktop mode. The
  more appropriate behavior is that the browser should only identify
  itself as a mobile/touch device when in Staged mode but should be
  treated as PC when in Windowed mode.
