Description Brian Burg 2014-04-22 15:56:27 PDT 
We should not be getting the client pointer and casting to a subclass, as is done in several places. Many of these uses can be converted to calls on BackForwardController.

For other calls, if code in WK/WK2 needs to use a concrete subclass of BackForwardClient, then it should store a pointer to the subclass instance and pass it to WebCore using PageClients.
