The idea here is to allow teachers (but not only them) to change homepage
to for instance: home page of the school, or if needed a page that they are
using on classroom for a given topic.

Although fine grained is an approach to a solution, also
all browsers have a similar capability, so our browse should have a similar
one.

You can add files for revision with &quot;git add&quot; command.<br>
<br>
However, can you write a bit about how this patch affects Browse<br>
design?   What design decisions did you took for this feature?   Better<br>
discuss design first.<br>
<br>
Also, your patch seems to be based on Browse code before current GTK3<br>

Yes, like Manuel said:<br>
<br>
the old codebase, is frozen now for features, only bug changes are allowed.<br>
<br>
So, yes please say a bit more about what the teachers exactly requested. What is the \
scope of that Feature, is it about setting a default page for a country, a \
deployment, a school, or a class, or individually for each kid?<br>
