Not a complete non-sense, but maybe an overkill ...

Struts is great for the controller model it provides. If you develop
a Laszlo application, Laszlo will probably take the role of the
controller (at least that's how I would do it). The the server side
should only serve stateless XML data. That's pretty easy to do with
whatever technology.

More or less yes. There's not much HTML dependant in Struts. I would
say that the tag libs are the only really HTML dependant parts of
Struts. And it's pretty easy to output XML with just the JSTL ...

Yo uhave to think at which parts of Struts will be usefull for you.
The input checking forms are probably usefull, the taglibs probably
not ...
I hope that helps a bit ...

PS : I've worked with Laszlo for a few month before abandoning it and
coming back to Struts (with the help of AndroMDA - team.andromda.org).
There was too many problems with memory management, asynchronous
execution ... be carefull !
