That is a very good idea.  Honestly, I haven't used MG much in quite awhile.
Although I poke my nose into the framework code every now and then I am
kinda rusty from a user perspective.  I didn't even think about simply using
onRequestStart to do this - duh.  I think that would accomplish just what
I'm talking about, and different actionpacks could be made available with
different implementations.  I suppose the only advantage to baking it into
the framework would be that developers wouldn't need to locate and install
an actionpack as a separate step. Is there some sort of repository for MG
actionpacks?

Cheers,
Bob
