We use a query cache for server data and a small store for interface state. Where do you draw that line in practice?

Anything the server owns stays in the query cache. The store holds only what would be lost on reload and does not belong in the URL.

Filters and pagination are the interesting case. I keep them in the URL so a shared link reproduces the same screen.
