Hi Kevin, had the same problem. Similar to Isaac's solution I used labels to do the trick, but that left a shallow aftertaste since you have to put a lot of work into them (make them focuseable etc for keyboard navigation) and they still don't feel like real links. Left aside the cool stuff you can do by right clicking on links.
In one case I manipulated the history mechanism to check for conditions in which a "rollback" should happen. The short storry is: 1. Yes, I _do_ assign a history token to that link 2. a history listener listens to that token and sets a boolean variable (i.e. dontChange) 3. the listener then invokes history.back() 4. the history handler is invoked for the pervious token, but because the variable dontChange is set, will not perform any processing for that token but just reset the variable Uggly, but at least you can use real links.
