Yup. No doubt that the solution completely breaks down if you need to use it
with several different parent prefixes.
I was able to get away with something similar b/c I had a very limited set
of mapped functions that were handled by a small number of action beans. It
actually had nothing to do with wanting localized URLs to reference the same
action. I needed the browser URL state to be correct for resolving relative
references to resources "owned" by the "context" established by the URL and
I didn't want to fix at compile time the list of supported contexts BUT I
had action bean(s) whose logic I wanted shared across contexts.
Even if the "natural" way was supported,would you really even want to
hardcode binding associations like that since it guarantees a recompile to
support a new language?
