The Smaller and Larger buttons were added in 2.14, based on a general 
consensus that zooming in/out is a quite common use case for web pages.

In the latest Epiphany UI-review [1] the conclusion was that we should 
not override GNOME defaults w.r.t. text/icon settings. However we should 
start a discussion before 2.16 about if we still want text below icons 
as the default. Personally, I like text *beside* icons a lot better. (In 
this case, only labels flagged as priority text will be shown.)
