Description
When installing wordpress, if you commit an error when filling the e-mail form, there is no "go back" link to go back to the formulary page and correct your error.

The original patch worked, however I felt that it was poor form to have a go back button that took you back to the formulary page that didn't have any of the information that the user had entered.
install-php.diff solves that. If a user fails to enter an email address or enters an invalid email address, it results in an error with a go back button. Clicking this button takes the user back to formulary page, but it has the information that the user had entered original already populated in the fields. I believe this is better. This patch works for me.

Is there a reason the back button couldn't just be used?
Sending to 2.8 since it has a patch.
Provides a "Go Back" link when a user fails to enter or enters an invalid email address at install while allowing the form fields to remember what had been entered.
