Only ActionError is deprecated right now. However, most of the references
to ActionErrors in Struts have been replaced with ActionMessages.
ActionErrors is still around because it's in the ActionForm.validate()
method signature. Use ActionMessage and ActionMessages wherever possible
for a Struts 1.2 app.
Eventually, we'll use Commons Resources' Message and MessageList
interfaces.
