Kris, Sounds good. Looks like the answer was (wasn't) looking for.
But, I'm sure it's a great feature in a different context.

I'm pretty sure this boils down to the way PropertyUtils works. <bean:write> will use PropertyUtils.getProperty(bean, property) to retrieve the "subTotal" property from the bean "cart". PropertyUtils will test whether or not "cart" is a Map (which it is) and then call Map.get to retrieve the property value. Since you've defined "subTotal" as a standard JavaBean property, <bean:write> (or really PropertyUtils) won't be able to find it.
