What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) go to http://www.pianopractice.org/FOPP3_2Single.pdf

(3) hit back button

How is this different from bug 65244?
Because my fix will not involve restoring the position when the browser / tab crashes or restarts.
It will restore to the last history state pushed, but not what the user is currently looked at (which differs as soon as a user scrolls away from where an internal PDF link sends them).

I figured since I don't intend on fixing that original complaint of 65244, that a separate bug should be opened.
Is this bug 367522 then?
Yup! Thanks for locating.
Merge into that bug and take ownership of it then? Thanks for taking this on.
