What would you use instead? Spring MVC covers a lot use cases simultaneously.

I use Wicket but it doesn't cover all the use cases that Spring MVC does.

Maybe Assembler with a little Perl? Anything else! Seriously, even the old Struts was better.

Wicket is pretty elegant. Clean, componentized, and fosters reuse. Issues with heavy session-reliance probably keep it from being more general-purpose, but it's actually fun to use.
