Bug#875826: epiphany-browser: typing in URL bar lags a lot, preventing correct typing

[Matteo F. Vescovi]

Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 3.26.0-1
Severity: serious

Dear Maintainer,

I've noticed that, since 3.25.9x version uploaded to experimental suite
for testing purposes in Debian archives, epiphany-browser has an
annoying issue related to bad lags while typing web addresses in the URL
bar.

I must admit that nothing similar has happened with former releases,
mainly 3.22.x.

This bug has been marked with a severity of 'serious' to avoid the
migration of the package to testing/buster for early checking.

Cheers.
