Travis, I just read the article and think it is a fine concept. Also their <setActionListener/> is nice. It prevents developers from some work on creating *detail* pages, as pointed out in the article.
So here is my +1 on that!

Anyone opposed to working a new optional scope into my faces? I volunteer if everyone's ok with it because I really badly need this.

How does the server know that a new window has been opened? Unless the client tells it which currently it doesn't. So how do you decide when to create and when to destroy the window scope? I think the idea of Korhonen seems more practical although I quite don't see how to implement the deserialization behaviour in a consistent mannor without being corruptible by the client.
