Doesn't getInput() return what struts-config.xml has in the
"...input=..." part of the <action ...> section? Or have I
misunderstood that?

Yes, you are correct, that's where it comes from. It's true that there's no
guarantee that this is where you really came from, but it is where you'll go
back to if your validation fails, and in the vast majority of cases, I would
guess, you want to go back to where you came from to show the errors. ;-)
