You can extend ActionMapping to include whatever property you need.
(1) Specify your ActionMapping class in the web.xml
<init-param>
<param-name>mapping</param-name>
<param-value>com.mycompany.mypackage.MyActionMapping</param-value>
</init-param>
(2) Use
<set-property property="yourProperty" value="yourValue" />
to set it in the ActionMapping.
(3) In your Action, cast the mapping parameter to your mapping class,
and retrieve your property.
