> Please, for the love of god, let open up anything on your site in a new tab.
Meanwhile, I've seen plenty of enterprise software and even banking sites, that:
* try to prevent you from having more than one tab open
* try to prevent you from having more than one session open
I get that sometimes server side state can throw a spanner into the works otherwise, when you can't write a proper stateless app/API, or write any kind of an app well enough either, but it's very annoying when you run into one of those systems.
More so, sometimes the explanation for this is "security", which just feels like the people behind the system design wanted to be lazy in regards to various lifecycles in the application. If I have my internet banking site open, pay for some goods in an e-commerce store in another tab through the banking integration and then refresh the banking site, me being signed out of it feels like a design flaw, not a "security" feature.
But oh well, you don't really get a say in these things, your bank is going to do whatever they feel like in regards to their UI/UX, as will those behind whatever piece of enterprise software that you have to use, or that you'll have to write in accordance with the requirements.
It's up there in regards to annoyance, much like ctrl clicking some element, just to discover that it doesn't let you open up new tabs, or maybe even right clicking something or trying to select text, just to realize that neither works and you have to copy whatever you need out of the source of the page.
