> Struts and Spring MVC both have the ability to map a particular exception to a particular page.  Struts goes a bit further and allows you to map an exception to an ExceptionHandler - allowing the user to wrap Exceptions in ActionErrors and return the user to where they came from (i.e. the INPUT).  
> I'd be nice to have a similar feature in WebWork.  Struts allows you to specify this at a global level or at an action level.  Spring is simply a global level.
> Spring Example:
>     <bean id="exceptionResolver" 
>         class="org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleMappingExceptionResolver">
>         <property name="exceptionMappings">
>             <props>
>                 <prop key="org.springframework.dao.DataAccessException">        
>                     dataAccessFailure
>                 </prop>
>             </props>
>         </property>
>     </bean>
> Struts Example:
>     <exception
>         key="exception.database.error"
>         type="net.reumann.DatabaseException"
>         path="/dataAccessFailure.jsp"/>
> I have a sample app I can quickly and easily test this functionality with.
