</div>

the back button in the CSS editor appears to be not working, including in [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true).

repro:

1. go to admin-custromize-themes and chose a theme to edit css
2. go to css editor and make a change and save (or don’t make a change)
3. try to use the back button
