Defaulting behavior for Page Flow annotations
---------------------------------------------

         Key: BEEHIVE-984
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-984
     Project: Beehive
        Type: Improvement
  Components: NetUI  
    Reporter: Rich Feit
     Fix For: 1.1


Some of our annotations require typing of the same sort of thing, over and over 
again.  Consider this:

    @Jpf.Action(
        forwards={
            @Jpf.Forward(name="success", path="myActionSuccess.jsp")
        }
    )
    public Forward myAction()
    {
        // do something
        return new Forward("success");
    }

It's probably the pattern for a huge number of actions.  It could be replaced 
by this:

    @Jpf.Action
    public Forward myAction()
    {
        // do something
        return Forward.SUCCESS;
    }

This would go to something like <action name>Success.jsp by default.  We'd have 
to make the suffix configurable (e.g., successPageSuffix="Success.faces" in 
@Jpf.Controller).  There are plenty of other places for this, including the 
begin action (which could automatically go to "begin.jsp" if it's not specified 
explicitly).
