 It's a high priority for another milestone. It is not slated for the
 current iteration. Though, when I did that, I didn't know if there would
 be another RC, so I marked it ahead. But at this point, there's no
 reason not to go ahead and do it this weekend.

 Just to clarify, we're simply docuementing the design rationale. There
 are not any plans to change how the ActionForm works right now.


And you're really going to have to break both of my arms and/or kick me
out of Struts development if you want ActionForm *ever* changed to an
interface again -- in *any* future Struts release.  I think it's an
absolutely horrible idea, for reasons that have been documented way too
many times to count.
