Details

I'm not sure how the go menu is supposed to work, since I don't see any docs,
but I don't think it's behaving as designed.

It's very neat that it's saved between runs, so you can jump back to one of the
last few pages you were at easily.

But, often sites aren't added when I surf. What's the criteria for being added
to the menu?

Also, because the Go menu bahavior seems to include pages from multiple tabs,
it's no longer just a combination of the back/forward button dropdowns like it
is in Mozilla. This means there's no keyboard accessible way to view the
back/forward list anymore.
Been surfing in three tabs since I filed this bug, and neither this bugzilla
page nor the page I submited the bug from are in Go, nor are any sites from the
other tabs. The last page in the menu is quite old.
It is rather erratic. What it is supposed to do (as far as I know) is record
every recent page that you've visited in the order that they were visited
regardless of which tab they were visited in. I'm not sure menus is the right
place for this bug, but then History doesn't seem right either.

Jeremy, are you still seeing this bug?
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7a) Gecko/20040110 Firebird/0.8.0+
(daihard: XFT+GTK2; optimized for P4/SSE-2)

The Go menu contains the title of each page I've visited so far (in an odd
order, but tabs can account for that). If this was a bug it's been stealth-fixed.
