Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

Ubuntu 8.10; Ubuntu Jaunty alpha 6

1. In a new profile, launch Firefox.
2. In the Ubuntu Start page, enter a search.
3. On the search results page, click the Home button.
4. Try to return to the search results by clicking the Back button.

What should happen:
1. The Back button should not be clickable.
4. You should end up back at the search results.

What actually happens:
1. The Back button is clickable even though you haven't been anywhere yet. It 
causes the window to flicker.
4. The window flickers a bit, but leaves you on the Ubuntu Start Page.

This is because the home page is set to
<chrome://ubufox/content/startpage.html>, which uses JavaScript to
redirect to <http://start.ubuntu.com/8.10/>, and is therefore treated by
Firefox as a separate page from the start.ubuntu.com page.

** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu)
