Hey, I feel your pain.  :)  I'm the same way; I want to check out a
link, but I don't want to have to wait for the browser to re-render the
page when I hit Back or (with NS) have to find where I was on the page
(if it's a really long page).

That patch sounds really interesting.  I assume that it only works in
X?  I'd be interested in trying it out.  Do you have it, or have an URL
to it?  Do tell.  :)
