hi brendan, in case of @javax.faces.bean.ViewScoped it looks like javax.faces.event.PreDestroyViewMapEvent doesn't get fired. in case of @ViewAccessScoped it's just not possible by definition to do it autom. (before the session expires) if you redirect to an external page, but you can use WindowContext#close (or #closeConversations) manually before you do the redirect.
