hi Justin,
From the limited knowledge I have on the Tabset component, the current
implementation is not meant to be used for navigation purposes. This
component extends EditableValueHolder, so it will go through the typical
JSF lifecycle an input component goes through and the page will get re
rendered.
thanks
