Just wondering whether this format change will be mentioned in NEWS, and what the reason for the change is. In NEWS, I find only this when looking for "desktop": *** Partial state of the eww buffers (the URIs and the titles of the pages visited) is now preserved in the desktop file. Is that it? Does just _adding_ info to the file really change the format in an incompatible way? If so, has it been fixed now, so that future additions (i.e., without changes that also change the existing fields) don't result in an incompatible change? If this NEWS entry is in fact the announcement of the format change, then please consider changing the wording to make clear that this is not just a benign addition of info but is an incompatible format change for the file. (A priori, I have nothing against a change. But it would be good to know what this is about.)
