Even though the popup is indeed generated by a javascript function, 
window.open(URL,...) , this surely results a request sent to the server,
since the URL refers to the jsf to be opened in the popup. So why
should this escape the JMeter proxy? What's the workaround?

Yes. The include filters are : 
.*\.jsp
.*\.jsf
.*\.htm
.*\.html
.*\.php
The excludes are : 
.*\.jpg
.*\.gif
.*\.png

Very good question. This is the important question now actually. If it
is the case, then wouldn't this be a problem on the part of JMeter?
In any case, how to overcome this?
