Display history on right-click of back and forward buttons #73

Closed turtlegarden closed 7 months ago

turtlegarden commented 7 months ago

In Epiphany, Nautilus, and in libadwaita's various navigation views, if you right click on the back or forward buttons you get a history of pages you can pop to, as so:

An Epiphany tab with some history

In Biblioteca this is not currently implemented. It would be nice to have this, as it would allow people to quickly scrub back through their history and then jump forward. To implement this, it might be helpful to look at how Epiphany does it, since Biblioteca also uses WebKitGTK.

we already have tabs to keep a list of things around

I'm not convinced this is very useful in Biblioteca

…Provided that the app is limited to docsets, and there's a sidebar and search, you may be right. This likely does not need to be implemented until Biblioteca can display other content
