Ouch, the back button becomes "Let's move backwards through all your mouse clicks".

Open menu (marvel at the animation), close menu -> hitting back means "reopen menu". Clicking through the tabs, and hitting back means navigating through them again, backwards.

I guess hijacking the link with window.location.replace can mitigate this, but the "Javascript is evil!"-Amish web-dwellers will scream at me.



Hey I'll take that over the back button not doing anything any day.
