NeXt question

Is it a requirement of NeXt that the outermost bean in a nested structure
extend ActionForm?  The tutorial is structured in this manner but it does
not appear to say this in the docs explicitly.  I'm guessing that having the
outermost bean extend ActionForm is tied into having struts call the set
methods of sub beans automatically.  Is this correct? Or can I use any type
of bean (SimperBean) as the outermost bean.

The real answer is... whatever makes a valid Struts form bean.

What I like is that only the top bean has restrictions. Every other 
level down doens't care in the slightest.
