• Separate classes that most applications need to use. Isolate classes that the framework uses internally or that are rarely used by applications. (See Rough Spot #3.)
• Distinguish between the published public versus private APIs. (See Rough Spot #4.)
• Utilize properties (methods) instead of protected or public fields (). (See #13.)
• Review exception handling. Some are still being swallowed rather than rethrown. (See #20 and WW-652@JIRA652@ww)

Modifications

• Simplify TextProvider. (See #15.)
• Modify ParametersInterceptor to sort parameter names by depth (using bucket sort) and then map them in that order (shallowest first). (See #21.)
• Use the strategy pattern to swap in different implementations of interfaces like ValidationAware. (See Tim, NTH #1.)

Deprecations and Removals

• Deprecate or remove the AroundInterceptor. (See #7.)
• Eliminate "do" clause for Action alias lookups. Scan Actions at load time for known aliases, and fail fast.

...

• On the OGNL value stack, rename #request for request parameters and #requestAttributes for request attributes. (See #17 and WW-785@JIRA785@ww.)
• Work with OGNL to add Java 5 support. (See #31.)
• Work with OGNL to make it a clear superset of JSTL. (See Gabe #4.)

Struts 1 Features to Implement

• Wildcard Action Mappings (Done in XWork 2)
• DynaForm as Model Object (including LazyDynaForms)
• Extends for action mappings (See Tim, NTH #2.)
