My inclination is to leave the current behavior as-is, a non-bug 
difference until we get a compelling reason to duplicate this 'bug'.

I can't say that Struts is *blocked* by this difference. It just uses
it in one of its standard examples. And our struts scenario checks
that example. In respect that the example itself is not a production
application and RI's behavior looks strange indeed I agree we may mark
it as a non-bug difference and fix Struts scenario to follow the
current Harmony behavior.
