Browser back button inside a review session lands on a black screen #27

Description

@jross787

Repro (v0.6.0, macOS, Chrome-family browser):

  1. Open a localhost review session: human-review http://localhost:8790/some-page
  2. Navigate inside the session via in-page links (multi-page review works great).
  3. Press the browser back button.

Expected: return to the previously viewed page inside the session.
Actual: a black/empty screen. Refresh or re-entering the session URL recovers it, and no feedback is lost (state is saved server-side), so this is purely a navigation UX issue — but reviewers instinctively press back and think the session crashed.

Guess at cause: the session shell rewrites the page in place, so history entries don't correspond to renderable states (no pushState/popstate handling).

Otherwise: excellent tool — we're using it to review a live FastAPI dashboard and the anchored-comment batches work beautifully. Thanks!
