Not intuitive.  We need to rethink this.

What if the action is part of an action set?  Redirect is
important when we are talking pure logic.  I think we need
to rethink the sitemap only thing.  It causes too much
to deal with by restricting ourselves so much.  It is unnatural
to delay redirecting to the sitemap, and then throw in some
PROGRAM logic in the sitemap.  This is mixing concerns, and I
don't like it.

What if we included the Environment object in the Action's
ObjectMap?  I think this will solve the issues for easy
programming--without relying on the site admin to not screw
up your site's security.
