Bug Description

Certain sites cause popup windows top open, and when this happens the popups do not obey user preferences for (among other things) history. This can be seen by setting maximum-history-age=0 and then browsing normally as well as visiting a page that opens a popup. The popup's pages will be entered in history while those from the regular session are not.

From IRC: "<kalikiana_> code responsible is midori_view_new_view_cb in midori-browser.c, new settings are created to tweak the ui, so there's two options 1) cherry-pick the history setting from the real settings 2) change the code to not rely on settings"
