Hi;
This may already be in shale - I'm only using shale's mock objects so far, not shale itself. Something I would find VERY useful is for shale to call a backing bean before rendering a page - where there is a way to tie a page to a method in a bean so anytime page dave.jsp is going to be rendered, it first calls this method which can then redirect. This is very useful for both security checks (essential actually) and to make sure someone does not save a url that is 4 pages through a page by page step and then goes back to that url.
