Title:
[Browser] No home button to take you back to the default home page
Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
Fix Committed
Status in Web Browser App:
In Progress
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
STEPS:
1. Open the browser on a fresh flash
2. Note the home page
3. Browse to planet.ubuntu.com
4. Close the browser
5. Open the browser
6. Try and get back to the original home page.
EXPECTATION:
Every browser has a home button, it may or may not be used on mobiles but at
some point you might want to go back to that page.
ACTUAL:
Once you close the browser the history registers the home page but after a
while that would disappear then you would be left with no reference of it.
-- SOLUTION --
Add a default bookmark in the New Tab screen
