This has worked OK for me up until 1.3B.

I have a bookmark in my personal toolbar as follows which was cribbed 
from the 'google buttons':

Name: GoogleSearch
URL:
javascript:q=document.getSelection();for(i=0;i<frames.length;i++){q=frames[i].document.getSelection();if(q)break;}if(!q)void(q=prompt('Keywords:',''));if(q)location.href='http://www.google.com/search?client=googlet&q='+escape(q)

Now, when I use this, I get a page of google results.  Then, I visit one of the
resultant URLs.  Then I can no longer go back via the 'back' button to my google
results.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install bookmark as shown, into personal toolbar
2. Go to a 'normal' web page, like www.yahoo.com
3. Click the 'googlesearch' button in the personal toolbar
4. Fill in some keywords like "garbage"
5. Wait for the search results to load
6. visit one of the resultant websites
7. try to go back [for me: it doesn't work]

Alternate steps 6-7:

6. *don't* visit the results; instead click 'back' to go back to your
   start site from step 2 (www.yahoo.com)
7. now click 'forward' [for me: it doesn't work]

Actual Results:  

The browser can't go "back".  Additionally if you have a 'back history', some
of the menu items in the 'back history' have no effect (while some work).
