ActionEvent / EventListener in a web app?

I am facing a strange situation. I have been using AJaX and I have
created a situation where it seems the best solution would be to add
ActionEvents and EventListeners to some of my servlets.

Good Idea? Bad Idea? Harmless?

The very idea of this seems to violate the stateless nature of web
applications but if it works.... ?

Are the their any reasons this shouldn't work or shouldn't be done?

I suggest looking into Spring Web Flow. It helps you to create a
meaningful stateful conversation between users and your service.
