I think perhaps it warrants a bit of discussion because if I were going
to tackle it I might be inclined to suggest that the struts-plugin.xml
be converted from an XWork configuration file to a new XML format that
would have a section specifically for XWork configuration and a separate
section for Struts configuration. Something like:

struts-plugin.xml or struts.xml?

For S2, we gave the framework its own XML DTD so that it could be more
than just an XWork configuration.

Both. Ideally any file that is loaded into Struts via the classpath would have an opportunity to control the configuration and/or initialization/lifecycle of the framework. This could be in a plugin JAR, which would probably be the most common. But it could also be within an application.

I noticed that it was a different DTD, so it would be possible to use it without major modifications as long as the XWork configuration system that leverages these files will happily ignore unknown entries. Otherwise, the Struts configuration will need to be post processed first and then handed to XWork. I'll start taking a look into this an see what I can find.
