Description:
------------
In documentation is written for "back" action:

"As of QFC 0.9.3, no form validation takes place on 'back' action. "

This is true, BUT ONLY if you dont use client side verification!

This might be the problem from HTML_QuickForm too, but HTML_QuickForm_Controller should overrid this.

This is true for HTML_QuickForm_Controller 1.0.2 and
HTML_QuickForm 3.2.3

Reproduce code:
---------------
//Add this to your form:
//----------------------------
$this->addElement('text', 'category', 'Category:', array('size' => 36, 'maxlength' => 50));

$this->addRule('category', 'Category is required', 'required', null, 'client');

$buttons[0] =& HTML_QuickForm::createElement('submit', $this->getButtonName('back'), '<< Back');
$this->addGroup($buttons, 'buttons', '', '&nbsp', false);
//--------------------------------------
//And your form wizard will never go Back

Expected result:
----------------
When you click on Back button to go Back

Actual result:
--------------
Validation error message.
