I think the way history navigation is handled in the current 
implementation is not very clean. The wrong callbacks are used to track 
updates to the history database. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think, 
the way it's done at the moment cannot correctly handle redirects for 
example. So why not have the full implementation there with global 
history delegates there.

Yes, there are new specialised signals, but these signals allow the 
embedder to have tighter control over history navigation and avoid backs 
with regards to wrong navigation state tracking.
