Well - thats what sessions are made for - manage a state for a *client*,
not a single *window* or tab.

Think about your concept. Either you use a state within the session or
you use the URL (or URL parameters) to determine, what to display. But
the session will always be the same, even if the user opens multiple
windows/tabs within the same browser.
