[webkit-qt] Browser Back not consistent with Safari browser.

[Srinivas Rao M Hamse]

Hi,

I think though it is a redirection, an extra history item is getting created
in this case. Are you noticing this issue in WebKit trunk releases?
If not, where should i file this bug ?
regards,

Srinivas Rao M.
