They are valid as long as they are being displayed on a page. Lift has a
garbage collection mechanism and, by default, if something that is bound to
a function (e.g., a link like this), is not on an HTML page for 10 minutes,
it will be garbage collected.

A SessionVar, not a RequestVar. RequestVars have the lifespan of a single
request... which is very short.
