Yes, it can. I don't think it's required though. I have personally used it
since day one with Struts 2.

The s2 tags are derivatives of the ww tags. I've used the WebWork in Action
book to work my way through the tags, and so far have found no deviation.

Xwork is still there, but I don't know that Xwork is the expression
language. It is my understanding that Xwork is an action framework around
which S2 is wrapped.

Regarding the expression language... I think you're thinking of OGNL, which
I believe is separate from Xwork, but I could be wrong, and I'm sure someone
will straighten me out.

Later,
