Overview
Lead: Dan Mills (thunder)

- Description
- Instead of a blank page, the new tab page should present useful task-centric navigation options based on the user's history.
Goals / Use Cases
- be perceptibly as fast as about:blank to load
- allow user to re-open previously closed tabs
- offer navigation targets that are likely to be of use to the user
- do not break the user's mental "flow" or otherwise interrupt a user task
Non Goals
- act as a content aggregator for "new" material
Design
