I actually think its a duplicate of bug 591905 (which is referenced on the page for bug 606459). The issue described in bug 606459 is more esthetic, however the bug I encounter makes it impossible to get back to the Add-ons overview page without closing the Add-ons manager entirely and restarting it. As a side note, I am not convinced that having these buttons remember history is a good idea, but if they do they should remember also the history within a category. It would also be much less problematic if I could simply click the "Get Add-ons" category tab to get back to the overview.
