The more I hear people talk about this topic, the more I'm getting 
curious about the request scope.

  If you are using these 'local' variables that are accessible via custom 
tags, doesn't that decrease the re-usability of your custom tag, if you are 
counting on this 'global' variables existance?  

  Shouldn't custom tags be coded to be as self-contained as possible?  
If you need to access values in the custom tag, wouldn't it make more 
sense to pass them as attributes to the custom tag, as opposed to 
globally defining them?  

  Just my thoughts.
