I definitely wouldn't wanna do this, as like the tip states, you then lose your ability to delete inputted text, so, if I make a booboo on a web based e-mail service and I'm 3 paragraphs deep, and I only have a backspace key, not a full delete key on my keyboard, then, guess what, I'm screwed. Looks like Im gonna be typing the whole thing over from the top... or... did I miss something?

Subject: A way to renable the backspace key to go back a page in Safari
Has anyone tried this? Or is there a better way to get a better command to
go back in Safari..
Re-enable the backspace key to go back a page in Safari 6

It seems like Apple disabled the "Press Backspace to go back a page"
feature in Safari 6 due to users having complained about losing text entered in
text fields when they accidentally pressed the backspace key. If you liked this
feature, you can enable it again using this command:
defaults write com.apple.Safari NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add Back "\U232b"If
you ever want to disable it, there are two possibilities. The first, if you
don't have any other shortcuts for Safari, is to run this command:
defaults delete com.apple.Safari NSUserKeyEquivalentsIt will delete all Safari
keyboard shortcuts.
The second method is a bit more time-consuming. You need to first
create a keyboard shortcut for Safari, for the "Back" command, in the
preferences. Then, if you apply the first command above, you'll be able to
delete it. If you don't have a shortcut set up for the Back command before
running the first command above, it won't display in the Keyboard Shortcut
preferences, and you won't be able to delete it from the preference pane. It
seems like using the defaults command to set up a shortcut only displays that
shortcut in the preference pane if you already have a shortcut created.
