Example Python and HTML to reproduce bug

WebKit2GTK 2.14 (and 2.14.1) has introduced a new bug which causes the &quot;notify::title&quot; signal to be called multiple times then it is necessary, whereas previous versions only trigger once. This is causing a problem for desktop web applications that change the document's title as a bridge between JavaScript and program's code, such as Python.

This issue is not present under v2.12.

Attached to this bug report is a Python example that reproduces this bug, which needs extracting to /tmp as it reads a basic HTML document.

* Under 2.12, clicking the &quot;One&quot;, &quot;Two&quot;, &quot;Three&quot; links prints &quot;One clicked&quot;, &quot;Two clicked&quot;, etc in the terminal once, which is the expected behaviour.

* Under 2.14, clicking the links prints &quot;One clicked&quot;, but then a subsequent click on &quot;Two&quot; and &quot;Three&quot; results in &quot;xxx clicked&quot;, a null, then &quot;xxx clicked&quot; again, which indicates a bug with the notify::title signal.

Thank you in advance.
