    Algorithm would be:

    1. on click dynamically add a DOM element: 1×1 px image with its source set to GMail logout URL;
    2. wait a couple of seconds (timer);
    3. redirect to Yahoo.

    Ok, whole test page content would be:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
    <head>
        <title>test</title>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            function go() {
                var oImg=document.createElement("img");
                oImg.setAttribute('src', 'https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?logout');
                oImg.setAttribute('alt', 'na');
                oImg.setAttribute('height', '1px');
                oImg.setAttribute('width', '1px');
                document.body.appendChild(oImg);
                var t=setTimeout("goOn()",1500);
            }
            function goOn() {
                window.location.assign("http://yahoo.com");
            }
        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
    <p><a href="#" onclick="go();return false;">superlink</a></p>
    </body>
</html>

    Have tested it in FFox – works fine : )
