Do you need to insert a breaking string every 3 items?
I think this approach is too much expansive in term of time.
Furthermore, after that, you should deal with subcassing process.
You should have valid reasons for do that.
Why don't you simply use mod operator?:

<s:iterator status="stat" value="{1,2,3,4,5}" >
   <s:if test="(#stat.index % 3)==0">
      insert breaking string
   </s:if>
   .....
</s:iterator>
