Description
Ticket #2383 / 10437 lets us restore the last page a user was on while also saving the user's Browsing history.
However the user's entire browsing history ends up in the Back history button. Should we consider saving where we were to put the appropriate amount of history in both the Forward & Back history buttons?
The downside to this approach is that if the user clicks a new link, the entire past Forward history is lost. But this happens during normal usage without saving to the journal & resuming as well.
Tested on OLPC build 10.1.3 os353.

Note: See

This happens because currently Browse only remembers the history, but not the position in the history where the user last was.
This is fixed in the webkit branch, but I think it could also be implemented in master.
