Truth is that I agree with Craig on most things, except JSF. I have
been an admirer and a student of Craig for a long time. That does not
mean I don't know how to disagree, however, as you so insightfully
note. LOL

I don't think this is comparable. Map has those methods in relation
to its basic operations. They are not utilities.

How about just introducing something like an ActionContextUtils class?
Just a bunch of static methods for these kinds of utility functions? Make
it have no direct relationship to ActionContext itself, i.e., no
interfaces and no superclass...

Map, for example, includes several optional operations.

I, for one, am of one mind with Hubert on these questions. I
particularly favor the one context option.

I think we would want to strongly recommend that people use the
ActionContext as a base class, as Joe is doing in his application.
Just as is done with the Commons Chain members.
So long as people follow our advice, and extend the base class, they
will be protected from changes to the API. If some

Perhaps, although I think it's more about preventing people from
implementing interfaces on classes which really do something else.
In any case, the common approach in many APIs is to strongly
encourage people to implement ActionContext by extending
ActionContextBase, and maybe that's reason en

I can totally understand where some folks would not want
