Indeed.

I guess my question is "How best to store the results of the action so they can 
be delivered as separate parts?" - particularly the image stream which I would 
really prefer to deliver as a stream rather than fiddling about with temporary 
files on the server.

Why would you need to call the DB three separate times? If you're already
returning a JSP why wouldn't you build everything you needed from the action
that processes the original submit? All you're doing is composing the
results of a few services--no need to call actions to do that, call the same
services.
