[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello Eli,

thanks. I added the version tags, the NEWS entry, improved the
docstrings and use `xdg-runtime-dir' now. See the updated patch
attached to this mail.

On Windows, the socket won't be there, and the new Qutebrowser window
will be opened by the newly executed Qutebrowser process via
`call-process'. This will work but is unfortunately slower.
