set validate="false" in struts-config and do that validation in your
action instead. You can still call the validate method on the form,
of course, and then you have the opportunity to repopulate the
request with that list.
There's no other work around that I'm aware of. Your situation
falls outside of what the pre-action validation is supposed to handle.
