[Bug 331575] Re: Inconsistent behavior when user opens a new window versus opens a new tab

[Mark Shuttleworth]

** Description changed:

  Steps:
  1. Choose "New Window" from the file menu, notice that window opens with your home page loaded by default
  2. Choose "New Tab" from file menu, notice that a blank window opens
  
  Result:
  1. This is unnecessarily inconsistent
  2. When in full screen mode new tab appears to turn the users screen totally white. This is confusing, especially on netbooks.
  3. Ubuntu has a useful quick search page that would make sense to show when a new tab is completed. However, the user instead has to navigate to a search engine web page, or use the search box in the browser toolbar to search. Again, this is time consuming in full screen mode.
+ 4. There should be a single preference which allows the user to specify the same behaviour for new tabs as for new windows.
