How to handle links outside a SCXML Dialog?

[Paul Spencer]

I am having an issued when users click links that are not known to the 
SCXML dialog.  When this occurs an exception from 
ShaleApplicationFilter.doFilter() is thrown. The links are part of the 
page's headers, footer, and navigation bar.  The expected behavior when 
the user click one of the links, like "Home", is the dialog will be 
closed and the desired page will be displayed.

How do I support links that are outside the dialog without adding each 
possible link to each dialog?
