Hide toolbars for app tabs by default Initial implementation available, being reviewed N/A Alex Limi

Summary

When using app tabs, we'd like to encourage hiding the URL and toolbar to leave more space for the web app — but still make it possible to enable them if you want. This setting should be remembered on a per-domain basis.

  • When using keyboard shortcuts to get to URL field or search field, it should be turned on for the duration of the interaction, then disappear again.
