           Summary: Broken behavior for back-button after
                    history.pushState() + location.replace()
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: shogun70 at westnet.com.au


To reproduce:

1. Navigate to http://www.webkit.org/
2. Open the Javascript console and enter the following

    history.pushState({}, null, "/blog/");

The address-bar now says http://www.webkit.org/blog/, but the page hasn't changed (expected behavior).

3. Now enter the following

    location.replace("/blog/");

The address-bar now says http://www.webkit.org/blog/, and the page reflects this.

4. Press the back-button. The address-bar now says http://www.webkit.org/, but the page hasn't changed from the "/blog/" contents.

This behavior is also observed in up-to-date Chrome.
