Comment:

 So the "taking a screenshot of an activity"-behavior is the following:

 It will be the name of the activity you are taking a screenshot from.
 Browse does adjust the name of the activity with the page you have been
 visiting last when it saves it's state to the Journal. (you can override
 that behavior when you set a title for the activity manually, in that case
 a flag is stored to prevent overwriting that user decision).

 What happens in the case you are describing is the following: You load
 page 'x'. The title of the activity is not changed. You take a screenshot.
 It will be the activity title, not the page title. You switch to the
 Journal. The activity title is updated with the page title. If you go back
 to Browse (without loading a new page) and take a screenshot then it will
 have the activity title (now the current activity page) in the name.

 So how to make this now more user friendly, or at least consistent:

 - trigger a save on every page load (would produce a lot of saves)

 - have a way of getting some extra information from Browse to the
 screenshot taking tool: to be able to do something like "Screenshot
 "Browse activity" page: wikipedia" or put the extra information into the
 metadata

 - use always the default title in Browse and do not update with the page
 title: if you consider multiple tabs etc this might not be appropriate in
 any case, we can consider putting that information into the metadata so it
 is available in the search in the Journal
