Generic Handler Method

Is there a generic handling method that can be overridden in the

ViewBean/TiledView such that when ever any button/href handler method

is called, a more generic method is call first.

Sort of a single point of entry for the ViewBean/TiledView.

The initialize() and beginDisplay() methods are not called first or

are called too early (before many objects are ready - models, page

session, etc.)

Correct, this is the method you can override to customize JATO's request

handling mechanism. The default mechanism dispatches to a request handling

event method, but you could theoretically override this method to do

something completely different (not that I'd generally recommend doing so).

Perhaps a more useful technique would be to override this method to do some

logging or profiling. What's your intended use for this method? If you've

found something that can't be done elsewhere, then maybe it's a weakness we

can address.
