Whether there is a variable set or not, a NPE is never good sign. Shouldn't this case be handled? Spring for example throws a NullValueInPathException instead.

No. No to exception :)

I suspect in this particular case (CTemplate) no exception should be thrown at all: as far as I understand, Cocoon 2.1 will just return empty (or null) value, but will not throw an exception. Examples:

  ${foo}, ${cocoon.foo}, ${continuation.foo}

all return empty value, no exception.

That's what so many people want to have for Spring as well [1] ;)
