I'm against this. 
It's a very convenient feature that Enter in the location bar doesn't do
a reload. Think of pages which you can "post" to, and which you can
also just open directly. If you reload, it will (offer to) re-post the data.
If you press Enter, it will load the page without using post data.

Admittedly I don't know what other browsers do, but I really like the
current behavior.

If the bug is duplication in the history list, I think it should be fixed at 
the level of the history list (I assume this is about the back/forward 
history, not the 500-last-visited-pages history).
