[Seaside] How to open a new window/tab with a new root component within the same session?

[Johan Brichau]

Hi Esteban,

I would think the following is sufficient:

html anchor
   target: ‘_blank’;
   callback: [ …. ];
   with: ’Open another tab’

This opens the component on another tab/window using the same session.
Both pages are different application states (aka continuations) within the same session.
