Thanks for both suggestions.  I think I'll try the extension.

Are there more of these extensions floating around out there?  The 
'blank new tab' extension isn't mentioned on Epiphany's website, nor is 
it included in Debian's epiphany-extensions package.  I had a look at 
the wiki and didn't see any "unofficial" extensions collection, but I 
will try looking again.
