This is another example:
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/struts/shale/trunk/clayplugin/src/java/org/apache/shale/clay/faces/ClayViewHandlerCommand.java?view=markup
The only requirement is that the command's implement the Command interface.
The common chains is a pretty sweet idea
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/chain/). It's a utility/pattern that can be
used in any tier of an application. The Struts 1.3 request processor has been
re-tooled to use chains (I wish I could get my employer to move from Struts 1.1
:--)
If a Command implementation returns "true" from the execute method, the chain
is stopped. You will need to consider that when deciding what order the
"preprocess" commands should be ordered.

Rick, here's where you can see the src for this class:
struts-shale-core-library\src\java\org\apache\shale\application
So ContextRelativePathFilter extends AbstractRegExpFilter which implements
org.apache.commons.chain.Command ..which i nothing about.... (sigh..)
