How about making Page.setForward bypass HttpServletRequest#getRequestDispatcher if Context#getPageClass finds a matching page class. If the intention is to run the Page class for the path, can we do that directly in Click without falling back to the Servlet mechanisms?
Interesting approach. One to thing to watch out for here is that filters will be bypassed.
Regardless of how we do it (RequestDispatcher or direct) I am just not sure we second guess the user when they forward or redirect to a jsp page. As nobody has raised an issue about this, perhaps the current behavior is correct?
In fact the one issue that was raised seemed to indicate that redirect should not convert from jsp to htm.
