            Bug ID: 147525
           Summary: WebKit2 Removed API to change
                    WebKit2.BackwardForwardList
    Classification: Unclassified

                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

In the WebKit1 API, it was possible to change a WebView's back/forward list.

For example, it was possible to reconstruct the history of a WebView (python):

    back_forward_list = webview.get_back_forward_list()
    back_forward_list.clear()  # removed in WebKit2

    for uri, title in histroy:
        history_item = WebKit.WebHistoryItem.new_with_data(uri, title)  # removed in WebKit2
        back_forward_list.add_item(history_item)  # removed in WebKit2

However there doesn't seem to be a workaround/replacement for these removals.
