RequestUtils.retrieveUserLocale throws Exception without Session

           Summary: RequestUtils.retrieveUserLocale throws Exception without
                    Session
           Product: Struts
           Version: 1.1 Beta 3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Utilities
        AssignedTo: struts-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jonstef@earthlink.net


The culprit is this call to PageContext.getAttribute:

Locale userLocale = (Locale)
   pageContext.getAttribute(locale, PageContext.SESSION_SCOPE);

It throws an IllegalArgumentException if the Session scope is invalid. I am 
working on a simple Struts application that does not require 
internationalization or the holding of Session data, so I set session="false" 
in my JSP page directives. This causes bean:write tags to fail due to the 
above restriction. Shouldn't this be handled more gracefully, as the 
retrieveUserLocale method already handles null Locale values?
