As albert said. The default shortcuts for the back acktion are "alt-<left>" and "back key" as can be seen in "kcmshell4 standard_actions".

Dolphin chose to overwrite the back key with backspace. A KAction unfortunately can only have to kshortcuts that trigger it. A design problem. So this bug is unfixable without introducing another bug or some ugly not really working workarounds.

If someone else could confirm that this patch really works on keyboards that have a back and forward key?
