On the Roadmap for Struts Core, there's an entry where we consider refactoring for Spring. Such a refactoring would be an excellent opporunity to address issues like this. I'd suggest we mark this ticket to handle during that iteration, and cross-reference the Roadmap.
Heck, if we switch to a wrapper around the Spring XML loader, than a lot of this would be resolved. And, of course, we did address this ticket to some extent with the config verifier. -Ted.
