When I click to go to an outside article (say a company profile), it shows in something like an iframe, and the only way to return to the front page is to click the "Return to reader" link provided. My browser back button doesn't do anything.

That's because you aren't going to a new page. The entire interface never reloads.

I understand the technical reason for the behavior. It'd be awesome if the back button worked anyway.
