Added
-----

- Alt-Backspace is now bound to rl-unix-word-rubout by default.

- The version info now displays the desktop environment and used
  style.

- New completion -> auto-open option to only open the completion if
  tab is pressed.

  Thanks to Carpetsmoker for the initial pull request.

Changed
-------

- pkg_resources instead of distutils is used to compare versions,
  which should work better in some edge cases.

- When entering caret mode with a text selected, the caret is
  positioned at the current selection's position instead of the top of
  the page.

- The version output with --version is now shorter.

- The default for new-instance-open-target is now 'tab'.

Fixed
-----

- Hopefully fixed a crash on Windows when pinning qutebrowser to the
  taskbar and starting it.

- The javascript folder (needed for caret mode) now gets included
  properly when freezing (e.g. windows executables).

- Using {foo} in search engine URLs no longer causes a crash.

- Various fixes regarding updating of the zoom position.

- Fixed a bug where all tabs showed the title of the first one.
  Thanks to Franz Fellner for the fix!

- There's no longer a 'scripts' package installed with qutebrowser.

- Scroll position and zoom are now properly stored for each item in a
  session.

Under the hood
--------------

- Tests now also run in a frozen environment.

- Building of Windows executables now use a virtualenv to make sure
  all dependencies are present in the right version.

- Fixed tests with Qt 5.5.

- Various updates of testing tools.

- Various documentation and spelling fixes.

Florian
