I have some code that I use for security stuff that uses GROUPS, ROLES, USER, PERMISSIONS. It can all be managed dynamically without having to reboot struts. The only thing you do is add the group access permission to the action declaration in the struts-config.xml file. Once the group access is determined the users role and permissions are drawn from the database, stored in a bean and used to customize the view.

Adding this (and a few of the other recent enhancements) to Struts 1.1 is definitely on *my* list. I will have some time to do so between Christmas and New Years.
