** Description changed:
Since version 0.23+15.10.20151005-0ubuntu1, webbrowser-app is running under
apparmor confinement.
This means that access to the local filesystem is denied (file://… URLs).
There is no user feedback when that happens other than a blank page, which is
not really great UX. A user-friendly error message to inform that browsing the
local filesystem is restricted would be better.
+
+ UX Comment:
+ As discussed and agreed during our regular sync-up:
+ "...Use the standard error page for this case, which should come for free
once oxide reports a failed load."
