But isn't the same as default action per package ? Where you can
specify the index action:

<package name="default" namespace="/" extends="struts-default">

        <default-action-ref name="index" />

        <action name="index">
            <result>index.jsp</result>
        </action>

</package>

Or would you have a more sophisticated mechanism which will
automagically discover index action instead of specifying default
action for each package ?

The case is that there can be more than one class used to implement
actions for given namespace.
