Summary	0002034: Clone tab support
Description	I use AmigaOS 4.1 and NetSurf 2.7 Revision 11703 I notice a strange bahaviour using NetSurf's tabs, if you open a new tab that isn't related to the previews one (for example opening a new "blank" tab and then typing an address manually) the left arrow in toolbar permit to turn back as the page in tab opened was "linked" to the first one I think that the normal behavoiur should be that each tab should have it's own history only rathen then share the history with the other tabs opened (the first tab in this case) How to test: - Open NetSurf Now the first page is www.netsurf-browser.org/welcome Naturally in this first page the left and right arrows in toolbar are correctly ghosted - Then now open a new blank tab from WB menu or with the addtab button Now if you go in this second tab you can see the same default page (www.netsurf-browser.org/welcome) but with the left arrow active, so it seems that this new page is linked in certain term with the first tab, but it's not or would not ! About this i receive a note from the AmigaOS4 mantainer: >>> to create a tab you have to have a "clone" window (so the frontend knows where the tab needs to be created). There's no way of telling the core that this is a completely new tab which needs new history. I'll have to check the gtk version, but I suspect that has the same problem. >>> Is it possible to support such feature in the future release ?
Additional Information	chris_y added a note on Wed Mar 2 20:25:01 2011 On the GTK version, creating a brand new tab clones the currently-selected tab in its entirety (including the URL). Creating a new tab from the menu should open a brand new tab with new history and new content.
