Pages not updating when using Back button
I don't know if this was an intentional change, but I haven't seen anything about it.
The entire time we've been on Vanilla, if I hit Back, I'm taken back to the previous page I was on, but forum content would update (read counts would update, threads would re-order based on most-recent post, etc) somehow.
As of this morning though, I'm not seeing that anymore. If I navigate back, I get the page as it was when I viewed it before, then refreshing will get me the new state.
Is this a bug?

I can move this to PM if it is outside the scope of this board.
E: if its intentional, I understand. I'm just hoping no one will get angry if I emulate the old behavior manually. =/
Because that was a minor annoyance, even if it made perfect sense once I thought about how it was doing it.
You can still go to that thread, be on page 41 (with #latest as the location), then refresh over and over to advance one page at a time, and that's really whats important.
I just wrote an addon that refreshes the bookmarks page for me automatically if I'm navigating to it for any reason and it's been more than 2 seconds.
Also, I just got used to the #latest behavior two months ago or so. I like this better for that, even if I have to unlearn the new habits

Much better to have it not refresh, you can always tell it to refresh yourself, while before it was mandatory.
(Still getting used to it. )

E: Nevermind, actually. I reloaded Firefox and it stopped happening. I should have tried that in the first place before saying anything.
