Ok, which functionalities do those method perform? Have you thought to personal taglibs? The ActionForm should contain only getter/setter and validation methods. *Work* methods on data could be easily grouped somewhere else. The logic of the framework is request -> ?action(form) -> presentation, thus doing something like presentation-> form doesn't seem to me the right way to perform some logic in your application. IMHO, data should arrive to the JSP already formatted and ready to be displayed. What I see as normal, is to have scope attributes to manage from within your JSP; to avoid code you can write custom tags.
