           Summary: Automatic Validation always bypassed with
                    CANCEL_PROPERTY
           Product: Struts
           Version: 1.2.8
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Action
        AssignedTo: dev@struts.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


* Issue: addition of a 'org.apache.struts.taglib.html.Constants.CANCEL'
parameter to any request will cause validation to be skipped, but the rest of
the request processing / action invocation cycle to proceed normally

* Consequence: any action which proceeds assuming that validation has completed
successfully and which doesn't explicitly check isCanceled() is proceeding on a
broken assumption.
