`No, I only have one class:

This is how a bean looks:

public class Content extends ActionForm implements Serializable {
}

So Content can be a data model bean because it has gets/sets but it also can 
be a form.

I just made a realization that this isn't cool if I'm working in a larger 
environment since any non-struts application/process using this object would 
have to have access to ActionForm =\
