Ok, here is exactly what we use here at Magnet. Please ignore the 1.0-ness.
Also excuse the scarcity of Javadocs for the individual methods.. hopefully
the stuff at the head of the class explains it.

package com.magnetbanking.util.servlet;

import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import com.magnetbanking.util.logging.Loggers;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.Action;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;
import java.util.*;


/**
 *
 * <p>This servlet allows custom code to be inserted into various places in
 * the Struts request processing cycle. The custom classes are specified
 * by the init-parameters in web.xml and must implement the interfaces
 * described in the following table.</p>
 * 
 * <p>All custom functionality that was once directly embedded in this
 *    class has been factored out into processing classed that can be
 *    plugged in here.</p>
 *
 * <table border="1">
 *   <tr>
 *      <th>init-param</th>
 *      <th>interface</th>
 *      <th>description</th>
 *   </td>
 *   <tr>
 *      <td>preProcessor</td>
 *      <td>com.magnetbanking.util.servlet.PreProcessor</td>
 *      <td>This will be called within the processPreProcess method.
 *          The process method's return code has the same semantics as
 *          the processPreProcess mehtod itself - if false is returned,
 *          no further process will take place.
 *      </td>
 *   </tr>
 *   <tr>
 *      <td>mappingProcessor</td>
 *      <td>com.magnetbanking.util.servlet.MappingProcessor</td>
 *      <td>This will be called as soon as the request path has been
resolved
 *          into an ActionMapping. If the <code>process</code> method
returns
 *          true, everything will proceed normally. If it returns false, the
 *          servlet will behave as if no action mapping could be found for
the
 *          path specified. This is ideal for security checking, since it is
done
 *          before any Action or ActionForm instances are created, so if
anything
 *          strange is detected, the request can be stopped as soon as
possible.
 *          The disadvantage is that we don't have access to the ActionForm
 *          or to the response object.
 *      </td>
 *   </tr>
 *   <tr>
 *      <td>actionPreProcessor</td>
 *      <td>com.magnetbanking.util.servlet.ActionProcessor</td>
 *      <td>The <code>process</code> method will be called immediately
before
 *          the Action instance's <code>perform</code> method. If the
process
 *          method returns false, the action will not be performed.
 *      </td>
 *   </tr>
 *   <tr>
 *      <td>actionPostProcessor</td>
 *      <td>com.magnetbanking.util.servlet.ActionProcessor</td>
 *      <td>The <code>process</code> method will be called immediately
<b>after</b>
 *          the Action instance's <code>perform</code> method.
 *      </td>
 *   </tr>
 * </table>
 * <p>
 * If multiple classnames (separated by whitespace) are provided for any of
the
 * above parameters, the classes will be called in the order in which they
are
 * listed. There is a "logical AND" short-circuit behavior: if any processor
 * returns false from its process method, the following ones will not be
called.
