I can't believe something as stupid as this issue has received this much attention. IE has use the damn backspace key as a shorcut to history.back for ages. Yet the serious bug with cache control is totally ignored.
Just about everything to do with caching in Mozilla is completely fubared, and a damn shortcut causes this much controversy? I'm beginning to think the Netscape developers and you guys deserve each other. Netscape obviously can't prioritize themselves, made obvious by the fact that this late in the game they still haven't finished the keyboard navigation, and you people actually think it's worth discussing when so many other huge problems exist.
