** Description changed: Ubuntu 15.04 r270 0. Flash the phone. 1. Launch the Browser. 2. Go to maps.google.com. 3. Tap “Allow”. What happens: 2. A dialog appears, “Permission Request” “This page wants to use your device’s location.” Deny / Allow 3. A dialog appears, “Browser wants to access your current location.” Allow / Don’t Allow What should happen: Only one dialog appears. Two is ridiculous, especially given their visual differences. Possible ways to solve this bug: - * The Browser should something that isn’t a dialog for site-specific permissions, like Firefox does. - * The Browser should have every permission by default, on the understanding that it can be trusted to ask per-site. - * trust-store should let any app split permissions into zones granted independently, and Browser should have one zone per Web site. + + * The Browser should something that isn’t a dialog for site-specific + permissions, like Firefox does. (This would also have the benefit that a + background tab couldn’t steal focus with a permission dialog.) + + * The Browser should have every permission by default, on the + understanding that it can be trusted to ask per-site. + + * trust-store should let any app split permissions into zones granted + independently, and Browser should have one zone per Web site. -- 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/1553713 Title: First visit to location-using site results in two dialogs Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 15.04 r270 0.
