I've seen the use of @Failure and JavaScript .back() combined before but I
don't like it. It's an annoying way for the user to have to validate their
entry.
The real issue with it is that not all browsers retain field values when you go
back to a page in the history. Mozilla is better at it than IE, which tends to
always blank out fields.
