What I suggested was the other way round... When the page is refreshing block it so that users can't click on a link while that is happening... And the way to block it could be using a veil (e.g. a transparent div layer with a loading icon) that does not allows the user to click on a link (the same as modal windows), not on the server side. I'm not 100% sure but I think wicket chains the AJAX requests so that only one request is processed at a time...(core developers, please correct me if I'm saying something wrong:-(. So, if you click on a link while the page sent a "refresh" request, then the "click" will be execute only after page is refreshed... and get lost somehow? There was a thread dealing with a similar situation some time ago... I use a similar approach with a GRID component that allows to drag and drop columns: while table is repainting I block the page so that user can't do anything... I do the same for ajax links, etc.
