This got long-ish as I'm partially thinking out loud about this
work-in-progress. Sorry. The whole thing got blown out of proportion
late last week and I shouldn't be doing this with Struts at all, I
think. More of a Dave's Java Playground project, this.

You missed the point, Adam. No one is so daft as to be saying that
having an interface makes the implementations of that interface less
than specific implementations. The point is that you can switch them
out.

Classes that implement interfaces can be instantiated at runtime
allowing for config-file-level application modification. This can
translate into HUGE wins over the life of an application.

Classes that implement interfaces
I think it usually comes down to three reasons...
(1) A class can only extend a single class, whereas it can implement
