Note that I had mentioned SKIP_BODY, not SKIP_PAGE.

I think you misunderstood my answer. BodyTagSupports overrides both.
doStartTag() changes value, while doEndTag() just uses its super, so
it has the same value.

Maybe a class going and playing with the page context of another
class?
Let me turn it around. Do you have a specific example for wanting
