           Summary: Allow creating new pages with a existing back forward
                    list
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Tabbed browsers typically copy the bf list of the current tab for the new view when creating a new tab. Epiphany and midori do that by using WebCore::BackForwardList::addItem() to add items of current tab bf list to the bf list of the newly created tab. In WebKit2 the C API doesn't expose addItem() method to keep the API simple, so it would be better to be able to create a page with a existing bf list.
