Why do you want to limit the number of buffers Emacs keeps? Other browsers don't, I think. When you go back to a previously visited URL, do you need to check if it's outdated? Do other browsers? If not, just displaying the same buffer is all you need to do. > And it could use `bury-buffer' and rename the previous buffer to a > name with something leading with " " when you go to a new page. I'm confused: don't you name each buffer according to the URL it shows? (No, I didn't yet try eww.el.) If so, the names are already different.
