How about:
<action path="/newsListAFew?number=10"
type="actions.NewsListAction">
<forward name="success" path="/newsList.jsp"/>
</action>
The Struts example application uses this technique quite a bit. At runtime, the
servlet container merges any request parameters on the path listed here with
those from the original request when it does the forward.
