Just use the implict object support in the 1.0 tags, like:
<display:table name="peopleList" id="person" varStatus="status">
<display:column title="name"> <input value="<c:out
value="${person.name}"/>" name="<c:out value="${status.count}"/>"/>
</display:column>
</display:table>
Where varStatus is an unimplemented feature; the alternative
would be to just hold a i++ counter of the iterations.
