Chris, I think the fundamental mechanism of S2 is the configurable interceptor stack where each interceptor applies itself to the current action based on the interfaces the action implements. You can still reuse this mechanism by defining your own interceptor stack with your own interfaces. Lets S2 ( or rather xwork ) take care of the wiring. Essentially, building your framework using the underlying configurable interceptor stack mechanism. Does that answer your question?
