I found myself in the C9 code today, working to fix a bug with our RSS feeds, and having recently had this discussion:
http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=374648#374648
I decided to take a look at the paging code for moving between pages of comments on a thread... I modified it to use normal links instead of 'linkbuttons' that used javascript, which caused a postback that in turn fired a redirect to a new page, and replaced it with a normal link that takes you to the same end result.
Turns out the same pager is used to move between pages of threads in the forum view as well, so you can now click to go to the next page in the coffeehouse and actually click on the browser back button to go back...
hopefully some folks will find this useful... and hopefully there aren't any downsides to this change for anyone (it seems, to me, that the end result is the same... it is just a better way to implement it)
