First of all thanks a lot for the fast reply.

The problem with storing something in the session is it that if the user
tried to access two different pages at once in separate windows and had
to login in both, he will be forwarded in both to the last page he tried
to access. I think this is a quite realistic scenario, for example if a
user was logged in and used the service in separate windows, but was
kicked out by the system because he was inactive for a while. Any way to
do that?

Best,
Anton
