Besides, to be a PITA I would have kept the full Go menu on the right click, so it's not just a dupe for the arrows.

I agree that having separate back/fwd lists would be ideal and better, but was thinking of making it easier to code for now...thus the single "go" arrow in between them with all the history was my suggestion...it thus doesn't imply either direction, but does allow one to stay away from the "GO" menu above.

True, BUT IE has two separate lists so the down arrow is tied/related to the direction. Using one list relates to neither direction. And FireFox doesn't hi-lite the left/right arrow when you hover over down arrows.

Good point. Done.

2 separate lists for the arrows, and full Go menu on r-click. Good idea!

Once again: EXCELLENT work in a VERY responsive timely fashion!
Yes, having the two lists makes it more typical of other products with similar back/fwd arrows...and makes it a tiny bit quicker to use as you often have less entries to pick from that way...plus less chance of hitting wrong one.
Now on to the next tweak to make it the ultimate Explorer-type product!
