I don't want to alarm anyone in that I have not seen this in the wild
however I came across a problem in my code recently that got me
thinking about race conditions and detachable models. I had a
detachable model that I was storing in my session object and decided
that Session.detach() and Session.attach() should go ahead and pass
the message on to its child detachable models (later I have realized
this is probably not a good idea). The behavior i was seeing was that
when two requests for the same session were made in rapid succession I
would get a null pointer exception. It appeared that thread2 attached
the module, thread1 detached the model, and then thread2 continued
with a detached model.

Could something similar to this happen with a model that is stored in
the page map? What if a user clicked on a stateful link twice quickly?
Does wicket protect against this potential issue?
