One approach might be to use a runtime expression as the value of the "focus"
attribute. Then, your action could set some appropriate request attribute to
the name of the field to be focused on, and your expression could pick up the
value.
At least with the most recent nightly 1.0 builds, all of the custom tags take
runtime expressions for all attributes.
