We just need to think about what happens if someone wants to use the
Bean Factory and the Component Tags.
If the Components are considered a standard part of Struts, is there
anything we can do in the base ActionServlet with an option or a switch
to enable this? Or would that be too expensive for applications that
don't use the Components?
