[Jwebunit-development] Simulating the use of the back button

[Mark Church]

I would like to simulate the use of the back button by the user using 
jWebUnit.  However, as it stands I do not see a way to do this.
Attached is a diff that adds the ability to the the WebResponse 
associated with the HttpUnitDialog so that I can save a WebResponse
from earlier in the test and later set this response as if the user has 
hit the back button to this page.  The diff also includes a test to 
demostrate
how I would use such a feature.

Any comments and / or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark Church
