It's been Up since at least Windows 3.0. They might have changed it to Back recently.
It's not suddenly an issue; I've occasionally accidentally gone back since IE 3. Between fourth mouse buttons, alt-left, and touchpad swipes, Chrome devs are starting to think that backspace-as-back is more trouble than it's worth.
