This would work, but would it be confusing for a
general message tag to default to errors? Originally
when I did this I was thinking that for general
messages there could be ActionMessage, ActionMessages,
Action.MESSAGE_KEY, etc. And there would still be the
equivalent ones for errors, but they would subclass
the general message ones and use Action.ERROR_KEY.
Where would the messagesExist tag go?
