Have you seen http://cwiki.apache.org/S2PLUGINS/tiles-plugin.html ?

Struts 2 is intentionally mostly ignorant of Tiles, except for the plugin,
so something like per-package tiles defs would involve writing your own
code, perhaps a custom subclass of the TilesResult. However, if you just
want to spread out your config among multiple files (which I like to do),
you just need to specify a context parameter like this:

    <context-param>
          <param-name>org.apache.tiles.DEFINITIONS_CONFIG</param-name>
          <param-value>
               /config/tiles/common.xml,
               /config/tiles/create.xml,
               /config/tiles/library.xml,
               /config/tiles/profile.xml,
               /config/tiles/login.xml
          </param-value>
    </context-param>

While I think Tiles 2 is probably reasonably close to a release, it is still
under development, and documentation is one thing that is needed.
(Contributions are always welcome...)

It doesn't have much traffic yet, but there is now a tiles user mailing list
-- see http://tiles.apache.org/mail-lists.html

In the mean time, remember that it hasn't been released, so if you plan to
use it, you should probably subscribe to the dev@(protected)
up with status and changes.
