[Dispatcher] unclarity of interface contract

Hi,

for Dispatcher 
(http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry5/services/Dispatcher.html) 
the contract of return value is:

---
@return true if a response was delivered, false if the dispatcher did 
not handle the request (and a search for a handler should continue)
---

For understanding I am having problems with 'and a search for a handler 
should continue' in case false was returned. Reading this, true means 
that dispatching should be stopped and no other Dispatchers should be 
called.
But how about a Dispatcher has done its work and wants to pass further 
work to more dispatchers (something like dispatcher-chaining, where each 
Dispatcher does something more to the Response).
