Editor: Triggering the unsaved changes AYS dialog in the editor loses <- Back button history

[ryanboren]

Triggering an AYS in the editor loses <- Back button history.

I trigger the unsaved changed AYS (Are You Sure?) dialog often when creating drafts. I’ll jump in to the editor capture a thought to work through later, maybe toss a screenshot up, and then get right back out. Autosave is usually too slow and I invoke the AYS, which seems to stomp <- Back button history. This disrupts my draft flow.

Steps to reproduce

1. Starting at URL: /posts/drafts
2. Edit a draft.
3. Make changes and then hit the editor's <- Back button before the changes save.
4. Notice that unsaved changes AYS dialog pop ups.
5. Cancel the dialog
6. Wait for the draft to autosave
7. Click/tap <- Back
8. Notice that you are returned to /posts/ instead of /posts/drafts, losing your origin

What I expected

I expected to return to /posts/drafts/, where I started. If the AYS dialog is not triggered, <- Back correctly returns to /posts/drafts/.

What happened instead

<-Back returns to /posts/ instead of /drafts/.

Browser / OS version

Macnchrome, latest
iPhone +, latest

Screenshot / Video

Flow starting from /drafts and following the steps to reproduce. Note that the start and finish are different.

Manually clicking/tapping Update also loses history.

After triggering AYS and clicking through, this results. Macnchrome.

Still happens. If you're on a wide screen where Drafts pops out to its own column, narrow your browser until Drafts is in the filter bar.
