GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 735984
URL bar dropdown does not reliably display page titles

Created attachment 285277 [details] One Wikipedia entry title displays properly, another does not The URL bar dropdown is supposed to display page titles above page urls. However, this behavior is not reliable. I have attached a screenshot demonstrating that one Wikipedia item title displays properly in the dropdown, while another does not. Whether a page is listed properly changes from time to time. For instance, worldofgnome.org is sometimes listed properly as "woGue", sometimes not. Lastly, the title does display properly in the URL bar while actually at the page, even if the dropdown does not display the title properly for that page.
They're not being displayed reliably in history view either.
I remember fixing this a couple years ago.
