Epiphany Topic Selector Patch t2



Hi all!

* What is it ?
==============

This is a patch is for the Epiphany web browser (part of GNOME),
providing a new bookmark properties window, adding some useful
enhancements to the topic selector. It also happens to make bookmarks
and topics able to be drag-and-dropped from the bookmarks menus to
places like the toolbar and the browser tabs.

This release is of my current patch to CVS head, a pre-patched tarball
of CVS head, and a pre-complied Debian package.

* What's changed for t2?
========================

    * Large changes to topic selector following user backlash ;)
    * Can no longer have topics highlighted/selected, can only click
    * Using a dialog in place of the inline "New topic" creation as it
      would otherwise complicate the behaviour of the topic 'palette'
      in "Most used" or "Community" mode.

* What's planned for t3?
========================

    * Custom bookmark icons.
    * Polishing the bookmark properties window (it needs to be perfect
      else we will get stomped on by users). This includes text strings,
      key bindings, etc.


* Where can I get it ?
