    Attachment: UrlHelperTest.patch

The attached patch adds two test cases to UrlHelperTest to illustrate the problem. I also have a small webapp that illustrates the issue -- let me know if you'd like me to upload it.

> The UrlHelper code uses HttpServletRequest#getRequestURI() to get the URL that the user requested. In a servlet 2.4 container this won't work if the request has been forwarded. In a 2.4 container the call to HttpServletRequest#getRequestURI() will return the URL of the forwarded page. The UrlHelper should first try to get the URI from the "javax.servlet.forward.request_uri" request attribute.
