the recommendation is to use explicit configuration using either the

I don't think so, you can setup Spring-plugin to use autowiring by type not
by name and also Struts will ask Spring factory to create given bean, if it
can't create it, Struts will do it by self, and once again will ask Spring
to create dependencies and so on...
This was not my experience. If Spring could not find the appropriate type it
would fail. If it did find the appropriate type it would auto-wire it,
meaning I had no chance to populate it manually. For this reason I would
strongly suggest adding an autowire="no" configuration option to
StrutsSpringObjectFactory that allows this to happen. This would also make it
consistent with Spring, which has an autoWire="no" option (which is also the
default).
What would be ideal from my POV is the chance to configure the internal struts
IoC container with extra beans.
Having to add an IoC container when struts already has one seems to be a waste
of resources.
