I haven't done this, but it should be quite easy to wrap a servlet in a 
Tapestry page by overriding the renderPage() function, as long as *all* 
the output from the page comes from the servlet.

You can still access the HttpServletRequest/Response, so this should be 
doable.

I would have the form set properties as usual, then make a new URL in 
the listener for the form and redirect to that (if you can redirect that 
late -- not sure)
