Interesting, thanks for side-checking this. What version of iBooks are you doing your tests in? I think I was testing in an old version, so maybe it's a bug that Apple fixed in a newer one.

I suppose the only scenario where it'd be a problem is if there were no back-link for some reason--but you should have a back-link, so you're right, kinda a non-issue.
