>From what I understand #initialRequest: is called any time the _k is
missing - it doesn't necessarily mean a new session has been created,
only that as far as the component is concerned, it's the first request
to that particular component within a session - so as long as you're
using cookie based sessions, it should all Just Work.

Ramon's blog post on Clean URLs in Seaside
(http://onsmalltalk.com/clean-urls-in-seaside) provides some useful
information here - and I recently used that advice to achieve exactly
the effect you're aiming for.
