In Java, all method calls have to return to the caller,
either normally or by throwing an exception. On the
other hand, the spec[1] does say:
8.4 Forward
"Before the forward method of the RequestDispatcher
interface returns, the response must be committed
and closed by the servlet container."

2.3PFD, but 2.2 says the same thing.
