Research direction
Reproduce this with the Travern theme on a site where Jetpack and its Carousel module are active, following the listed gallery and navigation steps. Investigate the Carousel view's closing behavior against the browser history, and consider the issue complete when the x icon closes the Carousel without returning to the previous page.
