It may be a valid issue, but so is "Make Struts Faster".  My point is
this ticket is so broad its long life is a testament to its validity or
lack thereof.  I suppose it gets down to how each developer views
tickets, but I personally see enhancements tickets as requesting a
specific feature that can measurably be addressed.  If this ticket was
broken up into its specific examples, they'd be fine tickets I'd even
recommend be marked bugs.

I don't feel strongly enough to make a big deal of this, but it is
another symptom of a general "paralysis" I feel affects Struts
development.  Sure, we need to be careful for backwards compatibility
and we want to encourage participation, but there is also value in
having a strong direction and making tough decisions to move the project
forward.  Three year old bugs so general they remain unaddressed, I
feel, need to either be fixed or resolved in another manner.  If we
can't come to grips with our past, how can we lead in the future?
