Effectively, the lifetime of a custom tag instance has page scope, although you
won't be able to see it with PageContext.getAttribute() because it is not itself an
attribute. A new instance of the custom tag is created by the servlet container
each time it is used on a page. However, custom tags can be used to *create* beans
that have any scope you like, as long as you declare this using the associated
TagExtraInfo class. (This is what the implementation of <jsp:useBean> actually
does, for example.)
