Unrelated indeed. @Steven: please file a new bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+filebug with details on the issue you’re experimenting, so we can track and resolve it separately. Thanks!

Currently it is set, according to a set of heuristics, at startup time, and not re- evaluated during the lifetime of the browser app. There are some more aspects to that bug. 1. What are the heuristics for determining the form-factor, and which form factors to support? Ideally, this is an SDK API we can just re- use. 2. When should the UA be updated? Again, ideally this would be on form factor changes, based on a signal. So which service will deliver that signal? 3. The overrides need also to be dynamic as well, so how many sets are supported, ie depending on the set of form factors supported, we need as many overrides 4. This extends to not only webbrowser-app but more importantly webapp-container, where overrides are a lot more widespread, and not centrally maintained 5. When the UA and / or the form factor changes, parts of webbrowser- app or webapp-container may want to further react, for example to reload the page.
