Andy,
Have you tried leveraging a hidden View Field? maybe you could have an
AL that fires in Midtier only and unhide a view field that displays the
URL of the window you need. That would sorta, kinda look like a
lightbox, wouldn't it?

Yeah, I'm using 'Dialogue' but getting the pop-up window behavior on
mid-tier.
The other window types appear to want qualifications ...
