[Bug 1556658] Re: beforeunload handlers can't specify message text in Chromium 51
webbrowser-app currently doesn’t handle the empty mesage case. We could
make it handle it, of course, but I think your proposal of exposing the
stock message to the existing Oxide API makes sense, as it would mean no
API/behaviour changes.

Title:
beforeunload handlers can't specify message text in Chromium 51
Status in Oxide:
New
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Chromium has dropped the ability for beforeunload handlers to set the
dialog message text. Instead, Chromium will display a stock message,
making it behave the same as Firefox. This will affect Oxide too -
beforeunload dialog components will be created with an empty message
string.
I assume webbrowser-app already handles an empty message string by
displaying its own text, but given that this API exists in Oxide, I
wonder whether we should specify a stock message in Oxide and expose
it via the existing API.
