--- Comment #21 from Pau Giner <[email protected]> ---
I think that it is desirable to achieve both: (a) Keep image specific URLs, and
(b) avoid users to go through a long sequence of all the images they have
visited.

If we don't want to completely wipe the browser history (Gilles provides
reasons for that above), what we can do is to limit the image exploration
through next/prev to just one back state. In that way, once you exit Media
Viewer, the first "back" action brings you back to Media Viewer (preferably in
the last image you viewed) and a second one brings you back to where you were
before (e.g., an article).

With that solution, a use can reach "Kiwi" from the "New Zealand" article,
explore 25 images of Kiwis from the gallery and after closing the gallery, the
"back" button will bring him to the "gallery" (where MediaViewer controls allow
to explore other images, but you are not forced to), then "Kiwi", and then "New
Zealand", saving 24 "back" button clicks compared to our current approach.
