This is indeed a bug, and I can go ahead and fix it
(at least in 3.3/4.0).
However, before I do so, would someone know why we
have the following comments/code in PageContextImpl?
In the class comments:
* The removeAttribute method does not work for request scope. Needs fixing.
public void removeAttribute(String name, int scope) {
switch (scope) {
...
case REQUEST_SCOPE:
throw new IllegalArgumentException("cant remove Attributes from request
scope");
...
