I hate this behavior in iOS 7 Safari so much. Whenever I want to modify the URL, it's a huge pain (on HN specific links, usually) -- there's no way to edit the parameters at the end of a URL (that I've found), and typing the whole long url on a phone or tablet isn't fun (especially when it includes lots of parameters, rather than just a simple path). It's one of the few things an alternate browser on iOS actually fixes.
