most people are ignoring this problem. I love everything about
wicket, except this. In this regard, wicket is a giant step
backwards from other frameworks like webwork, struts, etc.
Most struts-like apps that I've seen had problems like this too, at
least for parts of the application. Theoretically, there's no need to
have such problems, but practically, programmers depend on ad-hoc
session state a lot to keep track of things like the current tab/
wizard step and e.g. pagination number in pageable lists.
I can second that. We've built struts apps before and none of them
could safely and reliably work in multiple tabs/frames, except for the
"REST" parts. (Which were actually rare considering the nature of our apps).
So in this aspect, even if it doesn't seems so, wicket is actually
further. It's very easy to corrupt session state with application that
have use session in "adhoc" way. In wicket, it's much more difficult.
Sure the "Expired" pages are inconvenient, but at least they prevent
user to corrupt application internal state.

You can acchieve almost the same with Wicket by using stateless
bookmarkable pages for everything. But if you really want to program
like that, there are probably better frameworks to use.
