Affected Version: 2.9-rc1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Upgrade to 2.9-rc1
2. Go to a change that has a binary file inside
3. Click on any file to view the side-by-side diff
4. Use [ or ] to go to the binary file
5. Use [ or ] to go back

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to see a side-by-side diff using the new change screen of the file I had been to previously. I see it using the old change screen in unified, instead.

Please provide any additional information below.

It seems that binary files automatically go to unified mode, and therefore the old screen.
