What’s new in webbrowser-app in OTA-12 ?

 

Hi all,

With the release of OTA-12 just around the corner, here is a list of
the most significant changes in the browser app since OTA-11:

 - Consistent page headers across the UI, making use of UITK Page and PageHeader
 - Display the currently hovered hyperlink’s target URL in an overlay
 - Only load the current tab when the session is restored
 - Touch selection improvements
 - Dynamic chromium version number in default user-agent string
 - New keyboard shortcuts for persistent per-domain zoom factor
 - Optimized new tab view loading time
 - Updated user-agent overrides for youtube and gmail
 - Set the front camera as the default for video media requests

And a number of bug fixes.
Anyone interested in details, have a look at the bzr history for
lp:webbrowser-app, revisions 1454 to 1493.

Happy web browsing!

 Olivier
