Bug Description

Running 157 on Nexus 4 (mako).

Open twitter webapp and login to twitter.

Select any feed (home or connect) and try to scroll by tapping and dragging. It doesn't scroll at all. I'd expect to be able to drag and scroll.

I can reliably reproduce the issue with the latest daily image, however this image doesn’t contain the latest changes in trunk, and with a package built from the latest trunk, the issue goes away.
I’m not really sure what fixed the issue, but a recent revision did.

It appears the bug is back in the latest build.
It might very well be that the "fix" was a side effect of bug #1190409, and now that it is fixed, we can observe the issue again.

I confirmed this is related to the user agent string we are setting. See details here:

While working on bug #1179596, I’ve been experimenting with a minimal default user agent string, and it seems to fix this issue:
