Our web app. stores a complex objects in a session, therefore if that get duplicated we risk loosing data or multiplying numbers. I've seen very similar solution on other site, however as someone pointed out before it crashes when user wants to refresh the page. Is there any way of avoiding that and detecting page refresh???

I want to use a similar technique to store a tab bar state (which tabs & which selected) in the session but have it not break with new browser windows.

Does it work for you? I could not get your solution work when the user hits the Refresh button on their browser. Does it work for you?

Anywho, the solution i'm investigating now is to make sessionstate cookieless, and to make sure all popups are generated from a different function which initializes a new session id... right, that would work,

So it would be nice if we can reuse the same session variable for different pages, while we are in the same browser window. Generating a new sequence ID whenever a page posts back for the first time would work. But that means, for each form, you will have a new entry in session, even if that form is open in the same browser window. How do you delete old entries from session? Wouldn't you eventually run out of memory using this method ? Ideally, one would like a different session variable for every open browser window.
