I've always used the "redirect" method of the Redirector class. I'm assuming that redirect uses a local, relative path (for internal links) and globalRedirect uses a global path (for external links), but I haven't tested this and can't be sure. I also assume that sessionmode dictates whether or not to pass the session cookie on (there is a similar attribute in the sitemap redirect-to), but again I'm not sure and haven't tested.
there have been times where I have wanted to redirect to the referer from an action, so that the action simply changes the state of something on the website (for instance, a log-in). I suppose I could pass the referer's address to the sitemap.. I'd be interested in hearing reasons of keeping the redirect in the sitemap, other than the fact that any changes to java code mean recompiling/restarting.. but changes to the sitemap also require recompiling and restarting tomcat, which seem to take longer for me (as the sitemap can no longer be loaded from cache).
