Thanks for your responses. I should of thought about this issue before I developed the site with wicket ;-) i just wanted to try something new.
I will investigate the other url schemes but i think everything should be bookmarkable. It should be easy to refactor my tabs into pages and I suppose I can refactor the the PageableListView to a ListView and use a page number parameter like the good old days.
