and could I define a `virtual' page in pages.xml, e.g. a page that doesn't actually exist, but where the action listener would decide the page to be rendered, e.g:

<page view-id="/virtual.xhtml" action="#{switchboard.chooseAPage}" />

virtual.xhtml being non-existant, and switchboard.chooseAPage being a stateless session bean method that returns the real view-id to display.

The user would possibly enter the URL ending in /myapp/virtual.elvis, and #{switchboard.chooseAPage} might return a value such as eminem.jsp or britney.xhtml

The result of all this is that the URLs no longer have a 1-1 mapping to actual files, much like in Struts.
