[thelist] Survey popup

the onunload doesn't really solve the problem as the user leaves every page.
You'd be better off attaching an onclick event to any external link. But
even then, who's to say the user isn't opening a new window and still
remaining on the site. Although, you could possibly be sneaky and store a
variable indicating an external link has been clicked and then using the
onunload event to confirm that the page is unloading within a fraction of
having clicked the external link. Seems like a lot of work but it could
work.
