Sounds too specific.<br>
This is way better as an addon than making for everyone on firefox.<br>

<div>Hello,
<br>
<br>
Posted this to dev-apps-firefox, but found out it seems this
list is used much more, so I've sent it here.<br>
<br>
So a common firefox navigation session (for me anyway) might
go as follows:
<br>
<br>
1) Search for "xyz" on Google
<br>
2) Go to the first result, "<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://a.com" target="_blank">a.com</a>"
<br>
3) Finish reading "<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://a.com" target="_blank">a.com</a>", go back to
results.
<br>
4) Find and navigate to another result, "<a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://b.com" target="_blank">b.com</a>"
<br>
5) Realise I want to return to "<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://a.com" target="_blank">a.com</a>", press back.
<br>
6) Where from here? forward takes me to "<a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://b.com" target="_blank">b.com</a>"
and the search result for <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://a.com" target="_blank">a.com</a> is off the
screen.
<br>
I have a few options:
<br>
<br>
a) Scroll up, eventually getting to <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://a.com" target="_blank">a.com</a>
<br>
b) Open history, go to <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://a.com" target="_blank">a.com</a>
<br>
<br>
Neither of these are very intuitive or easy.<br>

Could the forward button be implemented such that there is a
list presented of the places you have been which are forward
of your current page?<br>
This could possibly be implemented by simply adding more than
one "forward" page to the list you get when forward/back is
right-clicked in firefox 20.0.
<br>
<br>
I know nothing about developing for firefox, or how the
navigation data is stored so maybe someone on here could pick
this up and run with it, or direct me to some resources I
could use to work out more specifics about how this could be
implemented, if it's a good idea, that would be great.
<br>
<br>
Hope this isn't too long and I look forward to hearing what
anyone thinks,
<br>
<br>
Sam.
