Description Michael Catanzaro 2013-12-21 04:23:33 UTC 
With no instance of Epiphany 3.8 running, I can click on a hyperlink in some program, and a new instance of Epiphany will open up.  It will include the page (or pages) that was open the last time I closed Epiphany, plus one new tab for the link I clicked on.

In Epiphany 3.10, two WINDOWS open instead: one with the old page, one with the new page. This is pretty annoying....

This problem solved in master, with the move the search
provider to its own binary. see bug #711409.

Cool.
