What is midori?
===============
A lightweight web browser based on WebKitGTK+, for Unix, Windows, Maemo
and other platforms. Several extensions provide advanced functionality
such as advertisement blocking, cookie management, userscripts or mouse
gestures.

Release notes for 0.4.1
=======================
So this release builds with WebKitGTK+ >= 1.4.3 without problems and
addresses regressions with middle clicking toolbar buttons. Flash window
on background tabs works correctly now and cookies are cleared on quit
like they should if you enable it.
There's a separate Private Browsing shortcut now so that you can see it
in GNOME Shell, Unity, Slingshort or Synapse and also type "private" to
easily open a private browsing session. Closed tabs can now be re-opened
in private browsing (but won't be saved once you close it as you would
expect). You can also see downloaded files in supporting launchers now
as recent documents.
The new Automatic option for Identify As now enables built-in
compatiblity quirks to work around mis-behaving websites like Google's.
You can still choose a genuine Midori identity which doesn't do that.
There's also experimental GTK+3 support. For now it is not recommended
because there are still issues to sort out. Build with --enable-gtk3
--disable-addons to try it out.
