 This isn't a useful bit of code, just a test case to ground future
 pushState work for 3.2.  Or be ignored by future pushState work for 3.2 :)

 Attached is a test case for determining browser behavior when using
 pushState.

 The numbered links use AJAX and pushState.  The "Other" link is a real
 (non-AJAX) link to an external site.

 If the state of the page is refreshed via AJAX, you'll see a var_dump(
 $_POST ).  If the state of the page is refreshed by a page refresh, you
 won't.

 An example of something this test says is broken in Safari 5.0.3
 (6533.19.4):

  1. Load the page (state = 0: pageload)
  2. click "One" (state = 1: ajax)
  3. click "Two" (state = 2: ajax)
  4. click "Three" (state = 3: ajax)
  5. click "Other" (state = external site: pageload)
  6. go Back in browser history (state = 3: ajax or just history?)
  7. go Back (state = 2: ajax or just history?)
  8. go Back (state = 1: ajax or just history?)
  9. go Back (state = 0: ajax). Everything is fine up to this point, though
 it's odd we do an AJAX request to get here.
  10. refresh the page once, either by CTRL-R or by hitting enter in the
 URL bar (state = 3: ajax). That's wrong.  What happened? Why are we here?
  11. refresh the page a second time (state = 0: pageload). As expected.

 An example of something the test says is broken in Chrome10.0.642.2 dev:
  1. Do pretty much anything.  Chrome Dev fires a popState event on the
 first page load.

 It could be a badly written test, or a badly written implementation of
 push/popState handling, or both.  These are the kinds of scenarios we'll
 need to test, though.
