You should also look into Filters, part of the Servlet 2.3 spec.  They allow you to "do anything" after a resource has written the response.  In fact, the canonical example of a Filter is one that implements an XSLT transformation, transforming an XML file that is written to the response "as

Yes. After being frustrated with Struts' linear processing model, I implemented my own MVC/Model 2 framework that had a workflow engine at its core. I'm now in the process of revamping it to take advantage of the Servlet 2.3 specification--filters and events, that is. And I intend to integrate
