Maybe this is a known issue. I searched but couldn't find anything so here goes.

When editing a form entry backspace triggers page back instead of deleting the last character. After hitting Page Forward what you wrote is gone, so it's kind of a bummer.

This thing seems to be intermittent. Now it doesn't happen all of a sudden. I don't know, I might have restarted the browser.

I think it depends on the type of text field.

I'm familiar with such a "bug".

It exists not everywhere but mostly on highly scripted modern pages (in my case it's on weebly.com) and the most easy workaround is to change shortcut for 'Go back' in accel.cfg.

I prefer smth like this:
CTRL VK_LEFT = ID_NAV_BACK
CTRL VK_RIGHT = ID_NAV_FORWARD

This makes KM navigate back with Ctrl+LeftArrow and forward with Ctrl+Right Arrow
