Narrative

A client submits a request to the Registration action for a new User account for the username "trillian". The Action object queries the database to see if the user exists, and then obtains a new User object for "trillian". The Action stores the User object in the client's session, and returns "success". The system matches "success" with a result object that presents the "Menu" page.
