Just meant to be simple for prototype purposes... And I agree that typically you wouldn't want a UI event like a modal to be part of the history().

First of all, modals create a bad user experience. But if you're going to use them, users on Android expect to be able to use the back button to cancel out of things.

Yes but... This modal explodes. Which, in most cases with design patterns, should only be used when appropriate. Right tool for the right job.
