Details

Scenario: I frob "Back" and stumble upon a POST request, Mozilla asks me,
whether I want to resubmit the query. Since the request is not idempotent, I
select "Cancel" - I wanted to go back to the page *before* that request, anyway.
But I am now stuck on the page after, the simple mouse or keyboard actions are
not able to hop over the problematic request, I have to resort to more
complicated ones.

Wouldn't it be nice if clicking cancel in this dialog, would advance me to the
next non-POST request in the current direction? Usually (in the Back case), this
means the form page from whose action the POST was. There I can change the form
controls, and submit another request, or go further back in time.
