It would be quite nice if the page popped an alert before leaving. OSX/Chrome has the irritating "feature" whereby dragging two fingers loses all of your data. err... navigates backwards. Looking to disable this, but asking before navigating would be an improvement.
- wdewind 14y agoUnder System Preferences -> Trackpad -> More Gestures set the swipe gesture to 3 fingers only

- middus 14y ago"nice page sliding animation" vs "[losing] all of your data" does not sound like a difficult decision to me.
- lloeki 14y agoContrary to Chrome which pops the history stack instantly, Safari's "nice page sliding animation" is completely reversable if you don't release the gesture and "put things back in place". The animation is not a gimmick, it has a very real usability purpose.
- etherealG 14y agoactually, there's an animation on the side of the page in chrome that's reversible as well
- wdewind 14y agoTo complicate things even further: only for 2 finger swipe, not three. Gestures in Lion are a sad affair.
