 appear when the url input has focus (e.g. you click/tap it to efit, or
 issue the keyboard shortcut ctrl-L). In the place where the little stop
 page loading icon would be, should be our standard clear field icon (grey
 circle with while x inside). Once you press the clear field icon, the
 field should be blanked and the clear field icon disappear (only to
 reappear once you start typing some text).

 (see screenshots)?

 only suggestion would be that we consider a square stop icon, to stop a
 loading page, rather than the current grey x (which we use to close tabs
 and close control panels).

 Hmm, if you change the stop icon you would need to change the reload one
 as well, otherwise it looks strange.  To me the simple 'x' and 'reload'
 icon do match nicely together.

 As you say, our 'dialog-cancel' icon is already the same  as the one in
 iOS, we can keep that. See #3385 though, for an issue adding that to an
 entry.
