[Bug 10365] popstate event fires after onload (first page visit) -- intended behavior? would be annoying if there was a script that ajax loaded a page at onpopstate, and hand typing in a url, the page is returned by the server, and then onpopstate fires after onload,

--- Comment #4 from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson <ian@hixie.ch> 2010-11-03 07:47:11 UTC ---
The spec seems completely unambiguous here — search for the string "fire a
popstate event" for the only two occurrences, neither of which can happen
without history traversal. Regarding the question in comment 2, a page load
results in the "navigate" algorithm being invoked, which unambiguously results
in history traversal.

Thus what you describe is an implementation bug.
