Bug Description

(this regression was most likely introduced by revision 795 of lp:webbrowser-app, it affects only desktop where the address bar gets active focus when opening a new tab)

Steps to reproduce:

 1) on desktop, launch the browser with "webbrowser-app --new-session"
 2) Open the drawer, select "open tabs" to open the tabs view
 3) In the tabs view, click the "Add" button in the toolbar, a new tab opens and the address bar is given active focus

Expected result: the address bar is cleared

Current result: the address of the previously open tab remains

Note that creating a new tab directly from the drawer doesn’t exhibit this faulty behaviour.

webbrowser-app (0.23+15.04.20141113-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=low

  [ Michael Sheldon ]
  * Add mimetype and file extension mappings for the new EBooks
    ContentType. (LP: #1383732)

  [ Olivier Tilloy ]
  * Update runtime dependencies of -autopilot packages. Now that
    autopilot has been removed from touch images, autopilot-touch is
    what we should depend on to ensure all dependencies are correctly
    installed prior to running tests using phablet-test-run.
  * Factor the security certificate details popover out of the
    AddressBar component, for improved maintainability.
  * Simplify quite a bit the machinery needed to set up the QML tests.
  * Always load the webview for a new tab right away. (LP: #1391609)
  * Set a stroke color on toolbar buttons. (LP: #1351200)
  * Add a sanity unit test that runs flake8 on the autopilot tests code.
