epiphany tab functionality

I understand that pop ups should not be placed in tabs,
obviously. I
speak only of new windows. 

I understand that gnome shoots to be simple, and just
"do what the user
wants" out of the box. But sometimes (imagine this)
different users want
different things! Epiphany should allow users that want to
to force new
windows into new tabs instead. I believe this has been at
least an
extension available in Firefox. 

Which behavior is default, I don't care, that is perfect
question for
the usability arguments, but please let those of us that
want it to work
a certain way choose that!

Sorry if that is a bit of a rant... But it stems from a
genuine desire
for Epiphany to be better!


For ^tabbing I guess if that is against the gnome HIG,
obviously that is
how it should be. But thanks for that extension Stefan!
Unfortunately it
doesn't seem to work, I have no /.gnome2/epiphany/plugins
directory! I
tried creating it, and the extension did nothing? I run
Dapper... Can
you point me in the right direction here?


Thank you all for reading and caring about this!

If you don't have the ~/.gnome2/epiphany/extensions/
($/.gnome2/epiphany/extensions/ -
"extensions", not "plugins")
directory, then yes, you have to create it.

Then you have to download
http://www.sstuhr.dk/epiphany-extensions/tabkeytabn
avigate.py
and 
http://www.sstuhr.dk/epiphany-extension
s/tabkeytabnavigate.ephy-extension
and put both files in ~/.gnome2/epiphany/extensions/

Next you have to enable the extension in Epiphany from the
Extensions
dialog: The menu Tools > Extensions...
(AFAIK you need the epiphany-extensions package in order to
have the
Extensions dialog.)

Ok, thanks. I had actually done everything but enabling the
extension in
the tools menu... Which I tried to do when I had the
extension files
elsewhere, but not while in ~/.gnome2/epiphany/extensions/ 

Thanks a lot for that! That helps make epiphany much more
natural
feeling for me.
