Note that the <html:link> tag will do URL rewriting for you.  So, to take
advantage of that in your case, you might consider using the <html:rewrite>
tag in your link, like this:

  <a href="<html:rewrite forward="forward.foo"/>">my link</a>

Where you've defined "forward.foo" in your struts-config.xml like this:

  <forward name="forward.foo" path="/app/someAction.do"/>
