Not quite, it will only enter in an infinite recursion in the same way that a struts action will if it has a forward to it self.
In this action that would only occour if the default forward were to "/dosemething.do", something like <forward name="default" path="/dosomething.do" />, because in any other case the first forward would be to the "/dosemething.do" and the second forward would be to the default forward, that shouldn't be the "/dosemething.do". So you see, the risk of infinite recursion is the same that in any other struts action.
