Actually, there is something like that... This came from Rickard's original requests back in January. I haven't worked on it for a while, so it might not be up to par with ServletDispatcher... but check out FilterDispatcher. It basically lets a request for index.vm take place, but rather than just letting the request go through it finds the _first_ action with a result pointing to index.vm and executes it.
