Bug Reproduction:
1 Right-click Adblock Plus icon in address bar

2 Click “Options”
- “Adblock Plus Options” page loads in a new tab

3 On “Filter Lists” tab, click “View List” (of non-intrusive advertising)
- exceptionrules.txt loads in the same tab

4 Click the “back” arrow (or press the “backspace” key)
- The current tab page becomes blank
- Address bar still shows exceptionrules.txt URL

Additional:
- Repeating steps 1 & 2 empties the address bar; blank page persists
- The tab must be closed before steps 1 & 2 will produce “Adblock Plus Options” page again


Using:
Adblock Plus 1.3
Chrome Version 22.0.1229.94 m

I’m wondering if no one can confirm this, or if no one cares to try.

I don't think that this can be fixed - that's really a Chrome issue, going back to an extension page isn't possible. So the only alternatives are making these links always open in a new tab or making sure that the back button isn't enabled (the options page doesn't stay in the history). I am leaning towards the former.

Opening these links in new tab now: https://hg.adblockplus.org/adblockplusc ... 8720e65120
This change will be in the next development build (should be out in 10 minutes).
