Which pop-up blockers in which browser are that? Are you thinking of 
someone using script alike
   window.open = function () { return this; }
?
Or are there indeed browsers or other tools providing popup blockers 
that do what you describe above?

I would just like to learn more about those popup blockers you have in 
mind, I am not contesting that the return value check of window.open() 
can fail.
