Hi,

The settings schema is now relocatable to allow web apps to have 
separate settings, and unfortunately dconf-editor does not support 
relocatable schemas. So unfortunately you'll have to use the command 
line to do this now. For example:

$ gsettings get org.gnome.Epiphany.web:/org/gnome/epiphany/web/ 
min-font-size
$ gsettings set org.gnome.Epiphany.web:/org/gnome/epiphany/web/ 
min-font-size 42
$ gsettings reset org.gnome.Epiphany.web:/org/gnome/epiphany/web/ 
min-font-size

It's a bit unwieldy, but I just tested it and it works.

Hope that helps,

Michael
