there was a lengthly discussion of this. As long as by default the
properties file is not overridden in web.xml is fine either way.
Another issue is that these HTML boundary comments get outputted even though the view
handler is set to "screencsv". In the
widget-screen.xsd, the only way to invoke a template to produce CSV is using
<html><html-template />, but this always adds HTML
comments even if the output is CSV (see HtmlWidget class). Maybe we could introduce a
<csv> element or something like that?
Anyway, both of those problems combined mean that there are no apparent clean ways to
remove the HTML "template begin/end"
boundary comments from the CSV output if you try to draw it with an *.ftl
template. A workaround kludge for now is to invoke
the FTL manually through a Groovy script.
