Title:
  Reuse empty tab when opening a link with the browser

Status in Web Browser App:
  Confirmed
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu RTM:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Let's say you close all tabs before closing the browser. Then you click on a link in another application and the webbrowser app is opened. After that, you end up with two tabs: An empty tab and the tab with the website you opened.
  It would be nice if the browser instead reused the empty tab for opening the URL. Having to close empty tabs all the time can be quite annoying.
