This reminds me, I've never liked this new syntax for the DISPLAY tag
<DISPLAY PROPERTY="[beanname:+]property" PLACEHOLDER="substitutevalue">
What I don't like is the use of colons (:) rather than periods (.). The
spec says it "helps distinguish this naming convention from Java syntax." I
don't see why that is necessary. For consistency sake using periods would
be more intuitive to a Java developer and make no difference to an HTML
developer. These are "Java" Server Pages after all. This looks more like
C++ Server Pages.
