Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 8172.47.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.79 Safari/537.36 Platform: 8172.47.0 (Official Build) stable-channel candy Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. click link 2. go back 3. press tab Test page used: http://audioworm.rein-online.org/table-contents/ What is the expected behavior? Keyboard focus moves to the next link What went wrong? Keyboard focus seems to start at the top of the page again Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 51.0.2704.79 Channel: stable OS Version: 8172.47.0 Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0 It works correctly in Firefox. My second disappointment in Chrome accessibility :P. Behaviour is clearly unintended. The scroll offset is restored correctly, but as soon as you press tab, you jump back to the very top of the page :(. Chrome is a laptop OS, and the laptop keyboards are redesigned, but it's still not quite there...

Looks like the current focus is not preserved in Chrome's session history, and is not trivial to fix.

I checked Firefox behavior today, and found that Firefox preserves selection, current focus and restores when history-back navigation happens. Chrome discards both selection and focus.
