When you’re viewing a long thread, and press the back button to get back the listing view, you don’t see any feedback of the transition before the page is actually rendered.

Since the time to render a page might be relatively long, it would be good to show some feedback (other than the default spinner in the top corner) for the user. For instance, clear the view and place a “Loading…” spinner there for a moment and then render the actual next page.

Also, it would be great if the scroll position would be preserved per view, so that you get back to the exact same place when navigating between a thread view and a list view (or any other view). New views should of course start from the top. I didn’t check if this is already done, but just came to mind when writing this ticket.
