             Summary: Provide the capability to disable the browser's back 
button/
                 Key: ISIS-1285
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-1285
             Project: Isis
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.10.0
            Reporter: Dan Haywood
            Assignee: Dan Haywood
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.12.0


In the Estatio app (and presumably many others, too), when the user deletes an 
object then they are shown the "no results" page.

What we have observed the user then do is to press the back button.  This 
navigates them to the object just deleted; because it has been deleted, the 
Wicket viewer shows them an error page. 

With the RoutingService (introduced in 1.11.0) we have the opportunity to route 
the user to some other "more useful" object, eg the parent of the deleted 
object, or some other object recently visited, or the home page.

Even so, if the user does press the back button, they would still see the same 
message.

This ticket is therefore to provide an optional capability to have the back 
button disabled.  Think it should be optional because not everyone (every 
programmer) will agree that back buttons should be disabled and in any case for 
some use cases, eg in read-only app, a back button is probably a good thing.
