Bug ID: 67146
Summary: Do not add image presentation to browsing history
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: MultimediaViewer

Currently, when clicking an image, mediaviewer modifies the address line of the
browser.
When closing mediaviewer by clicking the "X", it modifies the address line
again.
This behavior causes all the image display states to be added to browser
history, so repeatedly pressing "back" after viewing images will go through all
the images viewed before eventually getting to the real "back".
This behavior is non-standard, unexpected, and differ from mediawiki behavior
WRT ogg files: e.g. in this page: [[fr:1907_en_aéronautique]], pressing the
video starts to play it in an overlay window, much like mediaviewer shows still
images. Pressing the "X" of the overlay closes the video, without adding
anything to browsing history, so pressing "back" after watching and closing
videos, really takes you back.
I believe this is the expected and correct behavior mediaviewer should adopt.
peace.
