I suppose the answer is "no", at least directly.
Your problem will be the same even if you don't use Tiles, because,
when you forward to a JSP page, the latest request URI will be that
JSP page.
But the question is: do you want to create a customized menu depending
on the definition name?
In this case, I think you should look the concept of "preparer":
