Thank you both! I tried your solution, @Eric, but it didn't seem to work; I tried to move <$action-navigate $to=<<previousTiddler>> /> into the body, but that didn't help either. So perhaps the problem is more complex than simply changing $:/config/Navigation/openLinkFromInsideRiver
However, this was a very interesting way to force a specific sequence of events!
