Following up to myself: I want to also make it clear that I'm not opposed to 
changing my way of doing things, but so far I haven't seen anything that seems 
any better than what I'm doing now. I'm happy to explain more about how the ! 
syntax is used with all my forms, so that alternative approaches can be 
proposed to me.

However, the introduction of doInput() in ActionSupport, the fact that the 
DefaultWorkflowInterceptor and ValidationInterceptors are configured to ingore 
the "input" method in webwork-default.xml, and the pattern being used all over 
the place in the Showcase should be enough evidence that this pattern has been 
one that has been quietly pushed forward for a long time to WebWork users. So 
it's not just that I personally use this style - the framework itself has been 
designed to accommodate this style. If we're going to remove !, we need to be 
ready to also change other parts of the framework to recommend the new approach.
