Good questions

The log messages for these are at the debug level so you will need to
enable logging at the debug level to see these. This was a deliberate
decision as otherwise bad actors would be able to flood your
application logs.

The annotations should only target Action class methods. If you are
using a bean (also known as a form DTO), you only need to annotate the
getter method on the Action class that returns that bean (and with an
appropriate depth limit).

If you add `@StrutsParameter(depth = 99)` to every getter/setter
method on every Action class, it is indeed equivalent to disabling the
capability entirely.

So the annotation exists to prevent your application users from
invoking any arbitrary getter/setter on your Action classes as they
have been able to do in Struts 6 and earlier.

Also feel free to have a read of this section if you haven't had a chance too:
