* Website does not break functionality of the 'Back' button
The list looks comprehensive, I'm not going to do the HN thing and claim you ruined the experience by, in this case, redirecting my click in such a way that I can't press 'back' to get back to the article discussion.
But there. I said it. More and more sites are doing this, I'm almost ready to remove the button from the UI of my browser.
I believe there is a way to perform this redirection without ruining the Back button. Anyone know how it should be done? (I'll hear compelling arguments on why it should never be done, too, or the opposition to that since it seems to be a popular trend.)
