> Basically we need another Optional service that provides a user of Pluto's 
> container (like Sakai) with the opportunity to adjust things *right* before 
> Action and Render is called.
> In Sakai's case the use case is that we need to put a few items (context) 
> into thread local on every request so that the entire suite of Sakai APIs 
> works in portlets.
> For Sakai tools, this is done with a Request Filter - but for Pluto I do not 
> want to add anything like a filter because I want to maintain 100% binary 
> compatibility of war files between Sakai and all other Pluto 1.1 based 
> implementations - so for me an answer that says "just hack the web.xml and 
> add your filter" is not acceptible.
> I am already working on this and have complete but untested code.  Once 
> everything tests out, I will post a patch.  Here is the basic idea (imitating 
> the ADMIN listener):
> +public interface PortletPrepareListener {
> +
> +    void preRender(PortletRequest request, PortletResponse response);
> +
> +    void preAction(PortletRequest request, PortletResponse response);
> +
> +}
> I use Exactly the same pattern as the ADMIN listener.  I decided one listener 
> with two methods was better than two listeners.  
> And frankly - people smarter than me migh actually decide to refactor this 
> and call our new friend the "PortletServletListener" and have three mentods 
> (admin, preRender, and preAction).
> Once I hand in my patch - I am happt to see the refactor happen - based on 
> what folks think.
