Re: [OS-webwork] Default workflow

[Erik Hatcher]

Yes, I agree.  In my environment I'd set up conventions that all  
actions that have validations must have an input mapping, and would  
rather use an interceptor that took care of things automatically and  
avoid having to subclass ActionSupport.  But I agree it should not be  
mandated and should be flexible.

Sounds great!  I was going to suggest something similar with the
ValidationInterceptor.  It was confusing that it called execute() (to
me, coming from a Struts experience) when validations failed... and
then I found ActionSupport that took care of it.
I'd prefer the validation automatically go back to INPUT, so if this
isn't going to be available in a built-in interceptor I'd roll my own
probably.
This may be completely out of line with what you're talking
about, just
sharing my thoughts/confusion on ValidationInterceptor.

The idea is just to make it optional and explicit... There have been a
lot of people confused (repeatedly) about getting "input" returned
without it even hitting your action... Especially if you're not even
return "input" anywhere in your code and you didn't map a page for it!  
I
must say I've fallen victim to this myself, so making this explicit
should make you have to think about it.
