It depends on what you do after the forward returns. Typically, you would
just do a "return" from your Filter's doFilter() method (similar to just
doing a return after an RD.forward() in a servlet), because the response
has already been created -- but nothing stops you from calling
chain.doFilter() after the forward call returns.
