I agree, sadly. I always thought I wanted this feature, but I don't want it anymore, at least not the way Xcode 3.2 implements it.
My hunch is that the problem is Xcode remembers every time the insertion point moves, and that's not useful. All I really want is, when I use a navigation command like Cmd-double-click to jump to another location, for the Back command to take me back to where I was, even if it's in the same file.

Sure. There are menu commands for the old "Next/Previous File" as well as "Go Forwards/Back". Just go into the key bindings prefs and reassign the keystrokes to those. I did that last month and it's been a real improvement.
