I _love_ this idea as it is been something I've wanted to tackle myself
for a while now. I'm very interested in your progress, so let us know
what you find.

Based on the portlet plugin proposal and some work I've been doing
with the table tags, I thought I would propose a refactor of the URL
building for struts2. Right now, struts2 has great support for taking
on incoming request and mapping it to the core elements of the
framework (i.e. namespace, action, method, etc.) in the ActionMapper
interface. It seems like we should be doing the same for building
URL's. This would allow the url tag to be completely dumb about how
url's are built up. Right now, the url tag has specific logic to
determine if the request is a portlet request or not and uses
PortletUrlHelper or UrlHelper respectively. If the url building was
pluggable, we would have a default url builder that would be
configured to build either portlet url's or regular url's. This would
allow us to easily extract the portlet support out into a separate
plugin. It would also allow 3rd part tags (like table tags)
transparent, built-in portlet support with almost no effort. We could
also support other types of url's like Restful urls. (Right now, I'm
not sure how the url tag supports restful url's)
I'll take a preliminary look at this later today, but I was curious if
anyone thoughts, pro or con regarding this.
