Among the new features coming to the Epiphany web browser and available for public testing right now as part of the Epiphany 3.21.3 development release, we can mention the ability to run system Web Apps outside the GNOME desktop environment, as well as the ability to toggle the Web Inspector tool using keyboard shortcuts. Furthermore, it looks like the downloads popover will be enabled only for the active window, which should increase the overall performance of the web browser.
