As you may know by now, the EL in this version only allows you to access
javabean properties, and collection and map entries.  You can't directly
get the length of a map or collection.

What I've done recently is implement a small class called
"CollectionBean" which has two javabean properties of "collection" and
"size".  You create a CollectionBean with a collection.  Put the
collectionBean in a scope accessible to your page and reference the
properties in your EL references.  You can do the same thing for
"MapBean".
