Allow Tapestry4/Tapestry5 to be deployed in the same WAR.

                 Key: TAPESTRY-2421
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2421
             Project: Tapestry
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: tapestry-core
    Affects Versions: 5.0.11
            Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship


The main opposition to deploying a WAR containing both the T4 and the T5 
libraries is class name conflicts in the org.apache.tapestry package.

For a brief time, it was considered to rename org.apache.tapestry to 
org.apache.tapestry5.

However, more research shows that there are only three naming conflicts:

org.apache.tapestry.PageRenderSupport
org.apache.tapestry.TapestryConstants
org.apache.tapestry.TapestryUtils

These could be rename or otherwise refactored to avoid the conflicts.

In theory, and with a small amount of configuration, it should be possible to 
run Tapestry 4 and Tapestry 5 side-by-side in the same WAR.  The shared 
third-party dependencies, such as commons-logging and Javassist, should be 
compatible.

T4 Friendly URLs might have to be disabled, however; otherwise it becomes very 
difficult to determine which requests are for T5 and which are for T4.

Tapestry 3 has no overlap with Tapestry 5.
