you said:"first abc:null and then, automatically abc:1. That messes with the history completely - back now clearly won't work (will go to abc:null). " this is because of ur ABCActivity is not singlton, if it is singlton it wont call the method(probably initial method) which will setPlaceName(null); OR this method is called in activity's start method, because when you request an activity it will call the start method,but in same activity's different place.

The problem with that is that it's an all or nothing solution, whereas I'm looking for a programatic way of choosing when the navigation should add a new history item and when it should not. It seems to be a very simple thing to do - a flag in the PlaceChangeEvent (support for this seems to exist in various other gwt projects - GWTP for instance). >I'll also try to give more detail on my use case: >I'm navigating to a new Place/Activity with the url looking like this: >....abc:null.
