Backspace acts as back button in gridRef form inputs #52

Reported on Talk here http://talk.operationwardiary.org/#/boards/BWD000000m/discussions/DWD0000eol Seems to affect IE and Chrome on Windows, but not Firefox.

I'm baffled.

Apparently if the focus is not in a text field it is a keyboard shortcut for the back button: http://blog.laptopmag.com/disable-backspace-chrome-ie-firefox

It might be down to different handling of keypress by Firefox vs IE and Chrome. Hopefully 42ca26d9ed9fc0c4e233eeed11d8ccb6d486cf03 will fix it.
