Description

I would like interceptor references to contain a "disabled" attribute so it's possible to exclude an interceptor that's already bundled the stack.

Example:

<package name="default" extends="struts-default">
    <interceptors>
        <interceptor name="timer" class=".."/>
        <interceptor name="logger" class=".."/>
        <interceptor-stack name="myStack">
            <interceptor-ref name="timer"/>
            <interceptor-ref name="logger"/>
        </interceptor-stack>
    </interceptors>

    <action name="login" class="tutuorial.Login">
        <interceptor-ref name="clearSession">
            <parem name="disabled">true</param>
        </interceptor-ref>
        <interceptor-ref name="myStack"/>
        <result name="input">login.jsp</result>
        <result name="success" type="redirectAction">/secure/home</result>
    </action>
</package>

This isn't a totally thought out idea but the gist is you shouldn't have to redefine an entire stack to take out an interceptor.
