Modify ticket, in the Action box click on accept, then Submit
changes.  As a result, the Bug Status should change.

Later, if you stop work on the bug, set the Bug Status to something
other than Assigned or Accepted.

Please use terminology consistent with the code; this is the
SearchWindow you are talking about, right?  Assuming yes.

It looks like point 2 of the ticket is half done.  SearchWindow is
already a Gtk.TreeView inside a Gtk.ScrolledWindow inside a
Gtk.Window.  So you don't need to integrate Gtk.ScrolledWindow.

Looking at point 1, "put the URL below the title", _search_create_view
in webtoolbar.py uses two standard Gtk.CellRendererText to build the
TreeView cells.  I agree with Manuq-three-years-ago that a custom
renderer may be needed.

Look at our other custom renderers, e.g. src/sugar3/graphics/icon.py
and PreviewRenderer in src/jarabe/journal/iconview.py.

Start Epiphany and use the feature.  Review the C code used in
Epiphany.

Write a custom renderer.
