I don't hate this idea (which means that I kinda like it!) There might
be some inconsistencies when you want to pan around a larger than screen
object, like a map or whatever, but perhaps for those cases you use the
conventional "back" button.
Till later,
Scott.

Our recent discussion about a back gesture similar to iOS gave me an
intriguing idea. What if each level of a deep stack simply added a
page horizontally, and you could freely scroll between all levels of
the deep stack as if it were just a wide webpage?
- there would be no need for a back button or gesture
- it would be spatially consistent and require no mental energy from
anyone
- aesthetically pleasing
We could have the UI 'snap' to each level of the deep stack after
momentum drops far enough, but users could easily move from level to
level or all the way to the top. On tablets, they might be able to see
all levels of the deep stack at once.
This is just one of those ideas that's hopefully just crazy enough to
work, but not too crazy as to interfere with practicality :)
Sincerely,
Josh
