A Simple Safari 6.0+ extension that re-enables "back to previous page" navigation when you press the delete key.
- We don't steal focus from text / input fields.
- We don't steal focus from flash plugins etc.
This functionality was removed in Safari 6.0 which made me sad. Hopefully someone else also finds this useful.
- Press ESC to un-focus a textfield.
