It's always two steps forward and one step back with every Ubuntu release, isn't it? I don't care about the technicalities about whether it's Gnome, Canonical or Stallman who's responsible for introducing this bug. All I know is that it says "Ubuntu" on the package, and the maintainers of "Ubuntu" should put an effort into maintaining a level of functionality that Ubuntu users have been accustomed to. Luckily there was an easy fix for this, but it's still extremely annoying that one has to browse the web after every distupgrade in order to restore normal behaviour and functionality. I switched to Ubuntu for a reason, and this is NOT how Linux for Human Beings should be like!

Instead, you have to press ALT- left arrow, which is much more complex, as well as non-intuitive (non- intuitive in the sense that many users tend to use backspace to go back in browsers).
