[FLOW3-general] Edit Form with two seperate target actions

[John Small]

Hi,

use your 1st version and add this line to the methods documentation:

* @param string $saveAndBack

then Flow3 should know how to handle it.

you could add this line as well, to be sure one has clicked a button:

* @FLOW3\Validate(argumentName="saveAndBack", type="NotEmpty")
