Unless there's a solid use case, I'd prefer to leave things as they are. You're right that only Validator uses ORO and the plan for Validator 2.0 is to replace it with the standard java.util.regex system which is twice as fast. Since Struts 2.0 will depend on Java 1.4 we could add regex action mapping then if there was a use for it.
