Selenium Window target = "_blank" issue

For example if you have a link like

mylink with target _blank

Upon click mylink , the url loads into a new window ,  to do some operations in newly opened window it is painful to identify the windowName ..etc

And the solution for that is

selenium.open("/test.html");

selenium.getEval("this.page().findElement(\"link=mylink with target _blank\").target='maddys_window'");

selenium..getEval("selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow().open('', 'maddys_window')");

selenium.click("link=mylink with target _blank");

Thread.sleep(2000);

selenium.selectWindow("maddys_window");

selenium.windowFocus();

......
......
selenium.close(); //to close maddys_window
selenium.selectWindow("null");  //to get focus to main window
....
...
