Have a look at how the generation for struts-config.xml works. It's quite the same 
dilemna.

You can have a sort of "template delegation" meaning you would have a "global 
template" for xwork and an "action template" called from the "global template" for 
each action.

I've written some (the MX4J one and altered the BEA one for WLS7 support). If you 
already have a DTD or a schema, have a look at XDoclet2 that generates most of the 
work for you.

BTW, how will webwork2 work? will it use the xwork.xml file or another one? I will 
probably use WW2 on a project of mine, and could contribute on XDoclet support for 
WW2...
