Typically you solve this by letting the page author specify
a unique variable name for each occurrence of the tag in
the page, following the same model as the <jsp:useBean>
action, e.g.:

  <foo:myAction id="aUniqueName" />

with a TagExtraInfo class that looks something like
this:

  public class MyActionTEI extends TagExtraInfo {
    public VariableInfo[] getVariableInfo(TagData data) {
      VariableInfo vi =
        new VariableInfo(data.getAttributeString("id"),
                         "java.lang.String",
                         true,
                         VariableInfo.AT_END);
        return vi;
    }
  }

  I describe this in much more detail in my JSP book:
