Re: Work flow RFC

David W did a nice job of integrating Validation into Struts by adding a
servlet and hooking it to the ActionForm. 

I wonder if we could do the same thing with the ActionServlet by hooking
it to an ApplicationGateway servlet that was also initialized in the
web.xml? 

It would be very cool if we could add Baracuda style event handling as a
standard option just by using an subclassed ActionServlet (and then
using listeners, and so forth, through your application).
