- Light/dark/system theme (Settings > General) via nativeTheme.themeSource
driving prefers-color-scheme across chrome, settings, popover, and home.
- Search box redesigned: a magnifier icon opens the engine dropdown, the rest
is a wider typing field; styled to match the browser (was a raw <select>).
- Trimmed built-in engines to DuckDuckGo/Google/Brave/Bing/Startpage/Yandex;
custom engines still add/remove via "Add / edit engines…".
- WebRTC: the "WebRTC Network Limiter" extension can't run in Electron
(chrome.privacy API is unavailable), so its function is now a native
4-mode WebRTC IP policy in Settings > Privacy.
- Address-bar placeholder: "Ask a search engine or enter web address".
- Security popover redesigned to resemble Firefox's site-info panel:
lock/shield hero, "Connection secure" status, host, plain-language
subtitle, and a details grid; the overlay view auto-sizes to content.
- Search-engine picker returned to the toolbar with an "Add / edit engines…"
entry that opens Settings; added Ecosia, Mojeek, Presearch.
- Custom search engines: add (name + URL template with %s) / remove in
Settings > General; used by address-bar search.
- Address-bar placeholder: "Ask a search engine or enter web address".
- Performance: cache the chain index (was rebuilt on every navigation) and
warm it at startup — .bch pages open near-instantly after the first.
- Loading indicator: indeterminate bar under the toolbar, per-tab spinner,
and reload⇄stop button (driven by did-start/stop-loading + BNS resolve).
- Chrome cleanup: removed the bottom status bar and the redundant search
box; security padlock now always present at the front of the address bar;
minimal ICANN/BCNR pill at the end; favorites bar shows only on new-tab.
- Search: added Yandex; engine picker moved into Settings > General.
- Settings redesigned with a left sidebar (General / Performance / Privacy /
Anti-fingerprinting). Anti-fingerprinting now Show/Hide/Spoof/Manual for
timezone, language, AND location (geolocation coords overridden in-page).
