Description

Since the fix implemented in WW-5199 - I noticed forwards still did not function when it originated from a Struts excluded URL. This is because the exclusion flag is being maintained when forwarded. There is also an additional issue of the ActionContext being cleaned up too soon - prior to the SiteMesh filter being able to access it.
