main lists should be in a tabbed pane, when user clicks on link in table this will open up a new tab with the selected information.
Dialogs will be generated for information updates and adding new records.
Going to a new section i.e. going from Clients to Meters will reset the tabbed panes.

i.e. on client list user clicks an client to view instead of refreshing browser for a new page with client info on, a new tab will be generated with client info.

This solves a few issues:
* table sort order is preserved.
* search results are preserved.
* table column widths are preserved.
* no need for cancel buttons to take user back to where they came from.

You can see an example of this on my branch called 'shaun'
