Definitely a big part of what 1.1 is all about is integrating Tiles and Validator into the main Struts distribution. Pulling them back into pseudo-contrib status would not be a good thing.
Has anyone estimated the level of effort to make each of them be sub-app aware? I imagine it's non-trival, but not overly large. And, since we have new, eager, smart committers with plenty of energy and motivation, I would think that these changes could be done in a reasonable timeframe, perhaps with a little guidance from the original authors of the respective components.
