I need to have cascading functionality for a dbms that doesn't support
references and so am trying to figure out how I can best do this with an
interceptor class.

I could just write a javabean and pass in the conn, hashtable, my own update
methods ect and let it do the work of update the database but that leaves me
with some questions including what would need to be sychronized.

Is the Hashtable fieldValues going to be made available to the postUpdate
interceptor?

Could I somehow use the Control Servlet or would I need another servlet/or
javabean (providing similiar functions) that could update the database using
DbForms methods?  It seems like I could by adjusting the DbFormsConfig
config object to reflect which table I want updated and then go though the
process of creating a new EventEngine ect.  I wonder though what effect
creating a new EventEngine from another servlet or bean that gets called
from a postUpdate interceptor might have on the original update being
processed by the main controller.

I realize that this functionality is not destined for the next release but
know that someone has surely given it some thought and am eager to hear if
anyone has ideas of how cascading actions are expected to be accomplished.
