You should be able to just create a global result with the jsp you want.

Ala:

<global-results>
        <result name="passwordChange">/passwordChange.jsp</result>
</global-results>

Then have the interceptor return that string when needed. Any time it's true, the result will get hit and the user will get fowarded.

Unless I'm missing something.
