Title:
Drop "Open a " from .desktop Actions
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
New
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Right-click on Firefox in Unity's Dash (the strip on the left side of the
screen).
There are two custom Actions: "Open a New Window" and "Open a New Private
Window".
I propose that the "Open a " prefix be dropped.
This provides greater consistency with other apps which just use "New
Window" or "New Document" Actions. Examples include epiphany-browser,
gedit, LibreOffice and Nautilus.
In GNOME Shell, Actions show in the Activities Overview. GNOME Shell
includes a default "New Window" action. So in GNOME Shell, the actions
shown include the duplicate "New Window" and "Open a New Window".
(Note that an explicit "New Window" shortcut does not duplicate the
default "New Window" in GNOME Shell as long as the action is named
new-window.)
Also, you can drop the OnlyShowIn=Unity; from the Actions since
Actions are supported in other desktops (GNOME Shell currently ignores
that anyway).
See bug 1668730 for chromium-browser and bug 1668699 for webbrowser-
app.
