Bug Description

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

The setting middlemouse.contentLoadURL should control what happens when you middle click in the main pane of epiphany. When set to true, it should treat the contents of the clipboard as a URL and open that page (in the current tab).

This does not happen (nothing at all happens when I click the middle mouse button).

I'm using hardy, epiphany-browser 2.22.2-0ubuntu0.8.04.5

thank you for your bug report, the issue is an upstream one, could you open it on bugzilla.gnome.org too?

I'm not sure if it is worth it if the future of epiphany is with webkit (which does not appear to have this functionality at all).

A new version of Epiphany Browser is available in both Lucid and Maverick and we are wondering if this is still reproducible in any of those versions, May you please test and give us of feedback about it?
