backstepping from one state to the previous state never leads into a temporary state; they are skipped.

More information on these components can be found in section UI components.

Options menu	The commands and options that are available in the
	current context can be accessed via the options
	menu. It is displayed as a list in a pop-up window.
Query	A query is a component where the software waits
	for user input. All query components are displayed
	in pop-up windows. They consist of a prompt
	(possibly containing a graphical element) and some
	kind of input component. Various types of queries
	exist:
	- confirmation query: has either one or two possible
	input values, given using the softkeys.
	- list query: has a limited number of possible input
	values, the user selects one from a list.
	- multiselection list query: has a limited number of
	possible input values, the user can select zero, one
	or more of them in one pass.
	- data query: contains an input field for a numeric
	or alphanumeric value that the user can edit.
Note	A note is a feedback component that informs the
	user about the current situation. Notes do not
	require user input. They contain a text and possibly
	a graphical element, the layout is similar to a
	confirmation query, however the softkey labels are
	typically non-existent.
Soft notification	Soft notifications are reminders which inform the
	user of events that have typically occurred during
	the user's absence. Soft notifications can only be
	seen in the idle state, and the user can acknowledge
	them. There are two types of soft notifications; the
	layouts resemble those of confirmation queries and
	list queries:
	- single soft notification: contains one notification.
	- grouped soft notification: contains a number of
	information items presented as a list, and a title
	text common to all of the items.
Call window	Incoming calls and outgoing calls are presented in
	pop-up windows. See the section Call handling for
	more detailed information on call windows.
