The component for this UI is at https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/framework/components/DebugTargetInfo.js#23 and we hit the target actor (content process if page is in content) for [navigating to a URL, going forward or backward](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/25a38ac3b851b63e7d85a850940c354609e8126d/devtools/server/actors/targets/window-global.js#1259-1336). The only exception is for the "reload" actions, which uses the [target descriptor](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/25a38ac3b851b63e7d85a850940c354609e8126d/devtools/server/actors/descriptors/tab.js#241-251) (parent process). One option is to just reuse this pattern for the other navigation actions.

One option is to just reuse this pattern for the other navigation actions. (also checked, and this component is the only one using target's `goBack`, `goForward` and `navigateTo` helpers, so we shouldn't have the same issue in other parts of the UI)
