Musachy Barroso resolved WW-2732.
---------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s:     (was: Future)
                   2.1.3

I added a "searchValueStack" attribute to the "text" tag, which will be set to 
"true" by default for backward compatibility. Setting that attribute to false, 
will output the key, if the key is not found in the resource files.

> <s:text name="key"/> OGNL-evaluates "key" when it is not found in resource 
> bundle

> <s:text name="key"/> outputs the resource message designated by "key".
> If no such message exists (and the body of the tag is empty), it reverts to 
> outputting the name of the key itself, as an unevaluated string.  At least, 
> that's the behaviour of the tag, as described in the documentation.
> In fact, however, the name of the key is now being evaluated as an OGNL 
> expression, and if that turns out to be valid, that is what's printed.
> This, in my view, is counter-intuitive and probably counter-productive.  
> Consider the case of a ModelDriven<Book> action exposing a Book-object to the 
> View.
> Normally,
>      <s:text name="title"/>: ${title}
> would have yielded:
>     title: The Great Gatsby
> if the resource message "title" was missing from the resource bundle.  That's 
> not too bad an outcome.  However, with the key being OGNL-evaluated, we would 
> get the following output:
>     The Great Gatsby: The Great Gatsby
> which I find a little puzzling...
