Hm. Extension mapping is typically safe, while path-prefix
mapping may be *not*. The details are laid out in
Bergsten's 'Java Server Pages' 2nd Edition, p. 262ff.
(O'Reilly, 2002), dealing with the processPath() 
implementation of Struts 1.0.2. Well, though this
might have been changed in the meantime (can
anybody here confirm?), we at least strictly stick
to extension mapping (not always *.do :-) just
for security reasons.
