Can you explain to me exactly what the series of steps is, ie, is it

- open page with list of names
- while that page is loading, click on two names and open in separate
windows
- both those windows show the same person (the first one you clicked or
the second?)

One thing you should know is that Seaside doesn't let you have two
concurrent requests for the same session - if a new request comes before
the previous one has finished, it waits for the first request before
proceeding.  There's a 5 second timeout, so if the earlier request is
taking too long it gets canceled and the new one goes through.

I don't really see how that could be producing what you describe, though.
