Often it is necessary to work on more than one area of the system (e.g. checking invitations and security groups and workflows - or multiple document containers) in multiple browser tabs.
However if you do anything to refresh the screen in an earlier tab, the main data area starts displaying the container/page that your most recent tab called, rather than the container/page that that tab was on.
This makes multi-tasking (or undertaking a task that requires checking things in a number of areas) very fiddly.
Can each tab please retain its own session and not keep assuming the session of the last tab created/interacted with?
I am sure this used to happen as standard but stopped happening sometime after the recent redesign. Maybe a symptom of the new authentication framework that is more limiting and restricting by design? It does mean sometimes interacting with a pop-up window called by another tab that is still open will cause an unexpected error because it's now trying to pipe its results/commands into a later session (instead of the one that called it).
