[Bug 1534877] Re: [AdaptivePageLayout] Allow adding a Page on the stack of the next column

 

The problem with this is that you lose track on what has been added and
what not. Example, you have a list in the first column, each list
activation adds a page to its next column. You would need to track
whether the list item had already added a page in order to not to flood
the pages, or add those more. Beside, if the layout collapses, what
would be the page order there? Where would the back action go in that
case, to which page? to the one added on the top of the 2nd column? That
is against the foldable principles.

Title:
  [AdaptivePageLayout] Allow adding a Page on the stack of the next
  column

Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Add a new function to add a page on top of any existing page in the
  next column

  Suggestion:

  appendPageToNextColumn(page, sourcePage, properties)
  or
  pushPageToNextColumn(page, sourcePage, properties)

  Use Case:

  uReadIt uses the URL Dispatcher API to open links to Reddit from other
  apps, and also handles any Reddit links clicked within the app, by
  opening them in the appropriate column. But I don't want to remove
  whatever the user might have already had open in that column, just
  place the new page on top of it, so they can get back to where they
  were with the backAction.
