Hey Discourse!

I just noticed that navigating directly to a user’s page ([http://meta.discourse.org/users/gdpelican](http://meta.discourse.org/users/gdpelican)) breaks the back button functionality (it creates a loop between `/users/<username>` and `/users/<username>/activity`)

Seems to work ok when navigating through, say, the user card though.
