You should be able to redirect to an action that then forwards to the
tiles definition..
Something like
<action path="/foo" type="YourAction">
<forward name="success" value="/bar.do" redirect="true" />
</action>
<action path="/bar" type="YourAction">
<forward name="success" value="your.tile.def" />
</action>
Its not perfect, but then what is?
