I use the switch page signal to keep track of the displayed page, put a 
button in the label of the page tab when I create it and delete the page 
when it is clicked.

All works without problems.  Not even sure if I need to keep track of 
the displayed page...  May just be a hangover from development

If you are doing this, then check your code again
