Body:
Yes, it would be optional and entirely controlled by the library.
There are two cases under which XML is output:
1) the parser can't find a tag library for the namespace of the tag.
2) the tag library doesn't find a tag for the element name and returns null to the
parser.
In both cases, the parser creates a text script with the contents of the tag.
Each library has the option to, rather than return null, throw an exception (causing a
parse failure) or return a Tag that throws an exception at runtime (causing a runtime
failure).
In fact, rather than having the parser create a text script when the tag lib returns a
null tag, the library itself could return a Tag that outputs the XML.
I'm actually just starting to use maven myself, what do maven users output as XML?
Sorry to be so naive.

Description:
Many tag libraries only have a strict number of tags defined. So default behaviour for
these libraries should be that if a typo is made on a tag name, then an exception is
thrown.
Some libraries, like the Ant library, are more soft-coded and will try their best to
instantiate whatever they are given. However the default case is typically known at
compile time.
