    My first thought here would be to make this information available as a
    helper object that would read the forwards from the ActionMappings and
    bundle them up for the view. The view could then write whatever buttons
    it liked by reference to the helper object and the logic tags. Of
    course, someone could also develop a taglib that read the helper object
    directly and automatically created a panel of buttons.
