Excellent idea. Thanks. You are right I wouldn't even want form
validation to take place if they weren't logged in ( which would
be allowed to happen if I only checked in the action ). I take it
I'll have access to the session as well inside of
RequestProcessor, because if I go this route I will also need to
check for particular roles that will be stored in a UserBean put
in the Session and possibly deny or grant access based on these
roles.
