[Seaside] Ending all callbacks/calls

Hello,

I'm trying to add a "home" link/button to our application, which will
return the user to the page after login, whilst not leaving a trail of
calls/callbacks "hanging" in memory.

We are using several tasks for some parts of this application, so I'll
make a cut-down example.

Root>>go
  self call: TaskA

TaskA>>go
  self call: Component

Component>>renderContentOn: html
  html anchor callback: [ self session goHome ]; with: 'Home'


What I have tried so far, is subclassing the session, and task and
component with the following overrides:

Task/Component>>call: aComponentOrTask
  self session addCall: aComponentOrTask.
  ^super call: aComponentOrTask.

Task/Component>>answer: anObject.
  self session removeCall: self.
  ^super answer: anObject

Session>>addCall: aComponentOrTask
  calls add: aComponentOrTask

Session>>removeCall: aComponentOrTask
  calls remove: aComponentOrTask

Session>>goHome
  calls do: [ :each | each answer: nil ]


However, the process will only send #answer: to the first component due
to the continuations (I think.)

Does anyone know of a way to effectively reset the application state to
a specific callback?

Many thanks,
