Oh, I see. Perhaps then it's reasonable to say I was mislead by this Tapestry wiki page http://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/Tapestry5HowToCreateADispatcher ? This is pretty much exactly what I adapted to my application half a year ago, 'AccessController' name and all.

That's a wiki page, not part of the official documentation.

I am in fact using the Dispatcher to redirect to a login page with an expired context, I suppose I'm not entirely clear yet between the Wiki and my working implementation why Dispatcher isn't appropriate.

In this case, thinking it over, it's not inappropriate, just not as appropriate as a filter.

Perhaps its a case of, 'it will work, but that's not what it was meant for'? Or are there some nuances to the ComponentRequestHandler pipeline that make it a more robust authentication point?

It's only invoked for page render and event requests, not for asset ones.
