I usually find myself in need of hitting the back button to pick a word from the previously visited page. That's easier now using Safari in Lion.
To peek at the previously visited page just slide back the current page using two fingers and hold your fingers right at where you desire. The sliding threshold is very sensitive, so you just have to get used to it. The finger gesture is easily done when Safari is in full screen mode.
[crarko adds: I eventually got this to work with the Magic Trackpad, but it's really touchy and takes practice. I didn't look to see if this could be made available in Safari 5.1 in Snow Leopard. If you make that work let us know in the comments.]
