Bug#521914: epiphany-gecko: Please reduce the number of displayed suggestions when typing in the address entry

Package: epiphany-gecko
Version: 2.24.3-2
Severity: wishlist

With the new auto-completion features in Epiphany, the address entry suggestions' popup tends to fill the screen (it goes from the adress entry down to the status bar) when typing in it.
I think the size of the address entry should always been limited to something like 5 or 10 suggested links: letting the popup fill the screen isn't very useful (we should rely on the scrollbar or refining the results by typing more letters) and clutters the screen anyway, IMHO.
