Yes, I gave it some thought. The MessageTool will easily be the most used
context tool in any Struts application. The correspoding JSP tag is <bean:message .../>
In contrast, ActionMessages is new. Noboby is using it yet. So I'd rather come up
with some creative naming for action messages instead of for the well established
message resources.

I actually begin to like your proposed $actionmsgs. Message tool ($msg) typically 
will be used many times a page. Keeping it short is good. $actionmsgs typically is 
used once per template. Having a slightly longer name is not an issue. The 
potential for confusion between $msg and $actionmsgs is small.

I propose that we go with these names for now. We can always come back and 
change later.
