Dispatcher forward doesn't work from initialize in Controller (1.2.3)

[alpaxo]

In my controller i have

    public function initialize(){
        $this->userId = $this->session->get('user')->id;
        if(!$this->userId){
            return $this->dispatcher->forward(array(
                'controller' => 'account',
                'action' => 'login'
            ));

        }
        $this->view->setVars(array(
            'user' => $this->user = User::findFirst('id='.$this->userId)
        ));
    }

but the actual forwarding doesn't occur

In 1.3.0 that code works as expected

We don't fix bugs in old releases. Could you try to use 1.3.0?

@alpaxo does it work in 1.2.4?
