NPE in TemplatePageFilter.applyDecorator()
------------------------------------------

                 Key: WW-2712
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2712
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Plugin - SiteMesh
    Affects Versions: 2.1.2
            Reporter: Richard Wallace


When the ActionContextCleanUp->FreeMarkerPageFilter->FilterDispatcher chain are 
being used and the cleanup filter is applied to /* and the page filter is 
applied to /* and the filter dispatcher is only applied to *.action, the 
following NPE occurs:

java.lang.NullPointerException

In looking at TemplatePageFilter, it seems to assume that a Dispatcher has been 
set for the thread.  Since the FilterDispatcher is never hit, this is not the 
case.  It seems the only way to make this work is to make sure all three of the 
filters is applied to the same path.
