  "XTags is a JSP custom tag library for working with XML. XTags implements an
  XSLT-like language allowing XML to be styled and processed from directly
  within a JSP page using familiar XSLT and XPath techniques."

In particular, I was thinking of it's XPath support. Eg, to iterate over and
test all defined pipelines:

<xtags:forEach
    id="pattern"
    select="map:sitemap/map:pipelines/map:pipeline/map:match@pattern">
  <http>
    <httpRequest path="${pattern}">
      <match responseCode="200"/>
    </httpRequest>
  </http>
</xtags:forEach>

Ah well, presumably this sort of thing will be possible with the mythical Ant
2.
