Do this with JS and one of the many JS frameworks out there (i.e. YUI
history manager). In your AJAX link that changes tabs, you'll
appendJavascript("...code...") that adds the hash tag.

This will be the more difficult part, because the hash tag is not sent to
the server. So, you'll have to initially load the default tab. Then, use
the same JS framework to get that the hash tag is there and call back to the
server to load the correct tab. You can add a custom Behavior that
integrates a wicket callback with your custom JS for this.
