I needed (for reasons beyond my control) to have <html:form..> create an action="" with a relative URL. Searching the mailing list, I ran across others who were seeking similar functionality. I wrote up a simple addition to FormTag.java that allows an optional isRelative attribute inside the form tag.
Image tags have something functionally equivalent, so I'm guessing it may be functionality you are interested in. If you need something else from me, let me know.
