Action can be a call to a method in a session bean. If that method returns a string, that string is used as the view identifier. If that method has no return (void) or it returns null, then the view specified by view="" is used as the view. If the action returns null AND there is no view="", then the same page is just redisplayed.
So, it is a bit confusing, but here's how I use it: Most of my session beans are SFSBs, conversation scoped. They have a @Begin(join=true) method. I make this @Begin method return void, and when I want to navigate to one of them, I use that @Begin method as the action and then specify view="/foo". That way I make sure there is an active conversation when the /foo page is first rendered, so I don't get LazyInitializationErrors. I'm not enough of a Seam pro to know if this is the absolutely right way to do this but it certainly does work.
