Description

The normal page navigation of tapestry does not work if the request is an ajax request.
Returning a string or a class is not allowed. Returning a page results into the page rendered within the zone that was the target of the ajax request.

Tapestry should be smart enough to figure out if the user wants to navigate to an other page and do the redirect on the client without forcing
the developer to write custom javascript for that.
