Heath,
I tried this also (but forgot to mention), followed by "FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().responseComplete()"
but the request keeps processing the same jsp & the redirect never happens.
Is there any other way to handle errors inside BB constructor ?
In other words, I would expect most apps to have to deal with this...

Call FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().redirect(String)
