Sure you do, but you don't have to store all that data on the client side, i.e. in the cookie. Instead, you could just store the id of the data on the client as Janne suggested, right? His implementation was backed up by a db, but perhaps we could make default implementation using memcached or something similar, or at least make an api for it so people could implement their own. If you still don't think this is a valid use case, that's ok, I can just implement it as an add-on Tapestry/Tynamo module only. Kalle
