And also, don't forget that there is nothing special about an Action... you can instantiate and call execute() on it if you wish. In some cases that might be better because it does not incur the overhead of a run through the request processing chain of events again... depends on what your needs are though, you may want or need all that to occur. The argument against doing this, the main one I think, is that you now have two Actions that are coupled, more directly than they are by forwarding from one to another I mean, and that's probably not a good design. In any case, just something to keep in mind, another option you could possible choose.
