I think Ted was just saying that the core of Struts should remain small and that there can be lots of add-ons and extensions for "plug and play" functionality. It makes the core easier to manage and then people can add in whatever functionality they need by just dropping in a jar and/or tld. It has been added to the resource page that Ted maintains so lots of people will see it already.
