Its indeed a simple change. I'm also running a modified version of struts
capable to use nested and indexed properties. I would too like this feature
to be incorparated into struts.

Use <struts-form:text property='<%= "apples["+ i +"]" %>'>. This is not a
struts thing, it's the JSP spec that leads to this syntax.

See above.
