But I think this will only be a problem for a small minority of users. > Another features missing that I remember from using it for testing: > > - No UI (yet) to add new search engines. Yeah, nobody has complained about this is several years, but this would be good to have indeed. I think the vast majority of users are satisfied with the current options (DuckDuckGo, Google, and Bing) though. The problem with adding arbitrary search engines is that we don't want to expose users to format strings, so we have to think a bit about how the UI should work. Perhaps we should just expand the list of search engine options to match what Firefox offers. > - UI option for not automatically restore previous open tabs, this > default is annoying for me It's a hidden option, org.gnome.Epiphany restore-session-policy. I'm in favor of exposing it in the UI, but I believe some of the other developers are opposed. You can also close the browser with Ctrl+W (close tab; closing the last tab signals you don't want to see it again) instead of using Ctrl+Q or the close button. > - (Desired) Import bookmarks from Firefox.

Migration > should be easy This is already implemented. Trying it out now, I see the option to import from Firefox is missing for me; I get a combo box with just one option, which is pretty bad. I don't know why; it's probably a bug. You can of course do the export->import dance, but it's supposed to work automatically, like you requested.
