This doesn't at all fix your issue - what this would be doing is trying to catch multiple title updates and only processing one, which a) doesn't address the browser history push event duplication (that's a separate event altogether) and b) doesn't actually stop a duplicate registry.
What you probably want to do is actually modify

- Around line 105-107: Update the browserHistoryPushRemover guard so registering
a distinct callback does not discard that subscription; keep a single history
owner or IPC listener and ensure it delivers BROWSER_HISTORY_PUSH to every
registered callback.
- Around line 109-111: Bind the unsubscribe callback in the browser history
registration flow to its own listener: capture the remover returned by
createListener and invoke it only if browserHistoryPushRemover still refers to
that remover, clearing the tracked value only in that case.

This is definitely better, but I'm wondering if we should actually augment createListener to handle this instead of this one-off.
I don't think we have to for this change, but if not, maybe we should add a comment here about the one-off.

This is intentionally a one-off. Added a comment explaining why. Happy to revisit, if you think it may be used again.

Do we need to hold this reference here? I would thinking just a boolean is enough.

Summary
When a plugin bundles its own copy of utils/browser_history.tsx, the module-level side effect registers a second onBrowserHistoryPush listener. Desktop fires one BROWSER_HISTORY_PUSH per navigation but delivers it to every registered listener — both fire and push two identical adjacent entries into window.history. The Back button then steps between the two identical entries: the page freezes, the tab renames to the stale title from the older entry, and a second click is needed to actually move.
collapseDuplicateHistoryEntry() is called from the existing did-navigate-in-page handler. After each navigation it checks whether the active entry and the one behind it share the same URL. If they do, it removes the older one using navigationHistory.removeEntryAtIndex(activeIndex - 1), leaving the current page in place. This converges correctly regardless of how many listeners pushed.
Changes
Known limitation:
matches on URL equality. Two adjacent entries sharing a URL but differing in router state (e.g. same channel, RHS open vs closed) would also be collapsed. Not observed in practice.

Release Note
How to reproduce the bug (before this fix)
A plugin triggers this bug by bundling its own copy of the browser history module that registers a listener at load time. The minimal reproduction pattern:
Note: This bug is Desktop-only and does not affect browser usage.
