Have you had a look at XForms? Nothing to do with struts, but can handle repeating groups, and I beleive the form data is POSTed in XML, so theres little need for ActionForms. You might be able to auto-generate an XForm for an abritrary schema using XSLT (but I think I'm pushing it here). There is a partial implementation of XForms available at www.mozquito.com.
