Anyway, I don't see how this can be an invalid bug. Why did I not get an appropriate dialogue on the tablet explainging what was wrong? why did I have to come to Launchpad for an explanation (lucid and sensible though it be)?
Surely if Ubuntu's implimentation of the browser is enforcing this security issue, it is incumbent upon Ubuntu to say so when it does? So the bug has become "No dialogue explaining security enforcement for non-secure urls asking for location". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to webbrowser-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1588500 Title: Applications with permission for location claim they don't Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: OTA11 - same problem on BQ4.5phone & M10 tablet.
