Description Manuel Rego Casasnovas 2013-06-17 09:34:52 UTC 
For the moment we will add a new boolean setting "kiosk-mode" to enable/disable it. Default value will be FALSE.
Comment 1 Claudio Saavedra 2013-06-24 14:21:21 UTC 
I think it would be useful to define what exactly would a kiosk mode in Epiphany comprise, and get the designers in the loop to know how does this fit into a general GNOME lockdown mode.

This specific bug is only related to add the GSetting to enable disable this mode. At least it seems a valid approach for the first steps during the initial development.

Let's move the general discussion to the meta-bug #702432 about the kiosk mode, I'll post a new message there and add the relevant people to CC. Claudio, thanks for the feedback anyway :-)
Comment 3 Manuel Rego Casasnovas 2013-11-28 07:13:45 UTC 
This setting seems to not be needed as it'd be just the same than enable different settings (homepage, only 1 tab/window, fullscreen, etc.) and the specific list of settings to enable/disable might vary in different use cases.

Closing as INVALID.
