           Summary: Navigating back in a frameset sometimes reloads
                    subframes unnecessarily
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: All
               URL: http://www.rocket99.com/jscript/js26.html
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: History
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mpComplete at gmail.com


Here's some repro steps:
1. Visit the above URL.
2. Click on "Menu Option A"
3. Click on "Menu Option B"
4. Select some text in the left frame.
5. Hit Back.  (You're now on page "A").  Notice the text is still selected.
6. Hit Back.  (You're now on the intro page).  Notice the text becomes
unselected.  This is because the left subframe was reloaded unnecessarily.

Firefox handles this fine.

In general, when you navigate back to the history entry that marks the first
time you visited a site with frames, the entire page is reloaded, instead of
just the changing subframe.
