Do you really care if one instance of the wizard stays in the session?
If yes then you have to remove it yourself. You should know better
when it is appropriate to remove it based on your application state.
Struts form is just an object in the session map, so you can remove it
from session manually, this is not that big a deal.

You can add your own command into the chain of commands, so every time
your app receives a request you would check current app state and
remove objects that are not valid for that state.
