Description Julien Olivier 2011-09-01 02:37:14 UTC
If you try to use Google Docs in Epiphany, you'll notice that common keyboard shortcuts like CTRL-S to save, CTRL-O to open a document or CTRL-P to print don't work the way they are supposed to. The thing is that they work as they always work in Epiphany, and not how they have been re-defined by Google Docs' Javascript.

I suppose that letting a web-page override such common keyboard shortcuts could be considered rude or dangerous, but if you want to have web pages that behave almost like real apps (http://blogs.gnome.org/xan/2011/08/31/web-application-mode-in-gnome-3-2), you'll need to - at least optionally - support this.

This is a mass NEEDINFO of all Epiphany bugs with no activity in the past three years. I'm going to be automatically closing old bugs to help us focus on current problems. If you feel this bug is still relevant with Epiphany 3.26 or newer, then please leave any comment here so that I know not to close this one.

This is a mass-close of old bugs currently in the NEEDINFO state.

If you think this bug is still relevant, please leave a comment.
