Sadly I think this is true for a lot of sites. However my experience has been that many (particularly in the last 3-5 years) support command-click, back button navigation, and scroll position restoration.

More often than not, I've seen that tracking scripts break this more than anything else. Particularly command+click.

Still - it'd be great of there was an API to preserve UI state moving into a new entry in browser history. I don't want to lose scroll position for a sidebar if I'm drilling down into a large list of data.

Being able to add hints through markup for when to preserve UI state could go a long way towards making page-refresh based form and navigation behavior competitive again.

Maintainer of Colonel Kurtz here! It's super awesome to see positive feedback. Thank you!

CK is our workhorse for tons of sites, and we've struggled to come up with a good general pattern for editing horizontal layouts. We'd happily take suggestions, however. I'll admit it's one of the more awkward things with the editor.
