for me such a scenario could only make sense when the <clickLink> opens 
a new window. Even in this case, the "main page" may disappear (for 
instance due to a javascript close() called on it from the second window).
In your example, if the popup window closes automatically, the main page 
should become the "current" response again without any step for this.
