I do not see a point in merging them back. Personally, I do not use
JSTL 1.0 EL implementation and do not plan to use it. (IIRC, the only
occurrence when I used them was when I made a typo in tag library url,
like copy-pasting from a wrong tld file. Hilarity ensued).
Unexpectedly using a wrong implementation may be confusing.

Another point is that I do not like changing release packaging in a
point release.  Is this driven by a real users' demand? Have there
been any public complaints from real users (e.g. an issue in
Bugzilla)? What do we do with Maven artifacts? Abandon one of them?
