Highlights of this release

  • Add Vim mode for keyboard-driven page navigation, including configurable sequences, page-input focus, heading navigation, and accessibility-backed page structure navigation.
  • Add the native keyboard-driven Favorites sidebar with search, tag filtering, editing, shortcut assignment, and split-pane opening.
  • Migrate existing favorite folder assignments into the tags-first model.
  • Improve popup, floating-pane, external-link, standalone omnibox, CEF lifecycle, rendering, input, audio, and WebView cleanup behavior.
  • Harden WebKit bridge paths and refresh dependency, packaging, and release metadata.
