Well not impossible, we have some options but neither of them is stellar; yet, Lars: what's the POINT of redirecting back if you are still NOT logged in? I mean the Drupal registration process is two steps one of which is a mandatory "human has an email" type of confirmation / verification. You sign up, fine; and then you're back to the page where you came from but you're still "anonymous"; sound confusing to me... :-|

OK, would a link inside the page help? I mean something in the line of "Click here to get back to the page where you came from" or something like that?
