I have to say that I'm disappointed to see this committed at this time.
Craig specifically suggested that this code start out in 'contrib', but that
request was not honoured. I happened to agree with that suggestion, but did
not feel that I needed to say so, since I assumed that one dissenting
comment, especially from Craig, was sufficient to indicate that the proposal
needed more thought and/or experimentation.

Certainly, any committer can make changes at any time. However, as Ted
mentioned, "If you believe someone might have a contrary opinon, it's
helpful to ask first and proactively resolve any
vetos." Personally, I feel that Craig's comments should have been addressed
and resolved before any commit was made. I consider ignoring such comments
to be "bad form".

I'm not going to -1 these changes, because I think the nesting taglibs are a
useful extension to Struts. However, I'd really like to see us work as a
team, in the future, rather than as a group of individuals.
