Description Ross Burton 2004-08-09 11:24:45 UTC 
Galeon has a very useful feature, if you add a New Tab or New Window button to
the toolbar and middle click on it, it will open a new tab/window (respectively)
and go to the URL in the clipboard.

This mirrors the middle-click-inside-window pref inside ephy and is faster for
power users without confusing new users.

Mass reassigning of Epiphany bugs to epiphany-maint@b.g.o
Comment 2 Lionel Dricot 2005-04-12 14:26:12 UTC 
Agree, it will be wonderful !

But wich clipboard ?  The Ctrl+C one or the selected one ? (I would prefer the
selected one).

++ for this feature.
Comment 3 Ross Burton 2005-04-12 14:34:56 UTC 
For consistancy the PRIMARY selection, i.e. the "selected text" clipboard.
Comment 4 Reinout van Schouwen 2006-03-02 20:04:57 UTC
