Also, remember that your ActionForm properties all should be strings,
while your DTOs should be typed.  You can use BeanUtils.copyProperties to
do the conversion.

Say, does anyone have a dynamic AOP-style ActionFormProxy class that you
could use to dynamically decorate a DTO?  it would make ints, longs, etc.
on the DTO look like Strings at the ActionForm layer, but you could get
the DTO itself to pass to the business layer.  Dates are a challenge,
though, because of the variety of formats.
