Currently if you open the menu on the dive list, then hit "back", it closes the app. I'm not sure how long that behaviour has been in place, but going back a few versions I haven't found one that behaves like other apps.

I actually know apps that do that and it puzzles me.
We definitely don't want this navigation behavior. If a menu is open, the
back button should close it. If we are on the dive list, the back button
should do nothing.
