Yes, XWorkList lays in a excluded package that cannot be used directly
in OGNL expressions.

Hard to say, we extended the excluded packages to prevent unknown
feature vulnerabilities that can use those classes. It wasn't caused
by any security report. So changing struts.xml shouldn't be a problem.

You should see a WARN from the SecurityMemberAccess class (devMode is
not needed)
