What I find a little odd is that I sometimes get the offer to recover my
previous session when I launch Epiphany, even though it never crashed.
In fact, I've rarely seen Epiphany crash.  So I guess it must be
something with Gnome that thinks Epiphany was still open or still
running the last time I logged out of Gnome, or something.  It's not
really a bother because it doesn't happen that often, and it's easy
enough to click "Don't recover."  It's just somewhat amusing that an app
that is, overall, very well behaved seems to think it is not behaving as
well as it is.  :-)

As for the roadmap ... what about any plans for the sidebar?  Will we
ever, for instance, be able to load bookmarks there, or something else?
