Can't go back with one hand (keyboard only)

Reported by dr.lo...@gmail.com, Feb 2 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.95 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Cut your left hand
2. Try to go back with the keyboard only
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
I want to be able to go back in the history by using only one hand. By example, on PC, there's no "Alt" on the right of the keyboard. 

What went wrong?
Before you replace "Backspace" by "Alt+Left", it was possible to go back with only one hand.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: All  Channel: stable
OS Version: 
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0

It would be great if we could use either:
Alt + Left
Alt GR + Left

IIRC the official response was "use an extension we released for this use case": https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/go-back-with-backspace/eekailopagacbcdloonjhbiecobagjci

IMHO everybody will be happy if we could also use "Alt Gr + Left" on PC.

Comment 3 by woxxom@gmail.com, Feb 2 2017

Regarding AltGr, it's a bug of Chrome or Windows itself: it works on US-default keyboard layout but not on those where AltGr inputs alternative characters, see  issue 686605 .
