We do need the circular dependency: the basic principle is a super

source is block:child:/some/matcher - hence the circle, because the
selection-list will be resolved inside the super block.
Let me tell you how i *imagine* servlet-service-fw should deal super
calls and tell me how it's different from current situation. This should
help us both.
Let's have two blocks, one named "base" and one "extending", base is
super block for extending. I've imagined (before using super calls) that
it would work that way:
extending block is requested for "someResource" and suppose it has not
any matching pattern for it, then super (base in our case) block is
automatically asked for the same. You don't have to provide any generic
matcher that redirects processing to super block.
Now someResource is catched by base block but it asks for
"internalResource" by calling "servlet:internalResource". Given that
base block is called as super of extending, first extending block is
asked for this resource (because it may override it) and if it does not
provide one, it's taken from base block.
In short: I mean that super should work as fallback mechanism. I guess
it does not work that way now. However, this would eliminate need for
circular dependencies and give cleaner design.
What do you think?
