The interesting things is that, they're right about direct mapping
tables to UI.  If you're trying to do anything beyond CRUD direct
mapping doesn't work.  I've even agreed with some of their comments
about Struts.  It has it's warts.  However, the warts are going away,
and Struts, unlike any of it's leading competitors does JSP better.
Then of course, you have the simple fact that I've seen more requests
for Struts skills then I have for WebWork or Tapestry.
