Martin,
Regarding the WebFlow plugin: I haven't used it in production, but
I've been looking at it. It seems that it does not put the results of
a flow into somewhere that is available via the stack. This, at least
in the examples, requires that you use the interceptor to insert those
values into another action and thereby making the results available
from the ValueStack. This seems a little artificial to me.
