Research direction
Start with resources/web/docs_js/index.js at the linked code around line 213 and reproduce the pre-release header behavior in Safari or Firefox. Trace how the link is rewritten, then verify that it reaches the corresponding page in the current-version book rather than the book home page in both browsers.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Page header with link to current documentation, by default, goes to the home page of the book.

However, there is some JS code that rewrites this link to go to the same page in the current version book. This doesn't seem to be working in Safari or Firefox right now.
