The [2] there means it's the second background job in that shell. You
must have started something else before as [1]. 

It's actually still the same process, just a new window by defaut. You
can get a new tab by going to preferences -> Browsing and setting it to
open in new tabs instead of new windows.

We used to have firefox as the default and switched to midori in f19 I
think. (might have been f18). dillo has never been a default in the
Fedora Xfce spin. 

So, your orig report was that clicking on the web icon brought up
epiphany and it crashed? Perhaps file a bug on epiphany? Or am I
misunderstanding the issue?
