There's been a proposal to add a "then" parameter as well, thus:
<t:comp type='If" test="loggedIn">
<t:parameter name="then">
Welcome to the show, ${userName}!
</t:parameter>
<t:parameter name="else">
Click <a t:type="ActionLink" t:id="login">here</a> to log in.
</t:parameter>
</t:comp>

I've probably mis-understood the example / or am just being too

} else {

to think in terms of:
if () {
else {
}

It makes sense from a component development / template parsing
perspective, but may be one of those things that makes writing some
slightly more complicated logic in the component is worth the
abstraction not leaking out into the template code. At least in this
instance.
