Hello,
Yes, I had to override the processActionPerform() method indeed :(.
I see the point that you cannot do any postprocessing if the action does its
own forwarding.
However, if the post processing hook is only called if the Action class
returns an ActionForward instance (which is usually the case), I still would
be happy.
