It's difficult, because:

- you *have* to add the code that evaluates the expression. With JSP 2.0 you 
won't need to, it's done automatically
- the settters of your tag ahndler have to take an String as parameter, even 
if the expression will be evaluated in another type (for instance, the value 
attribute on <fmt:formatDate> is a java.util.Date)
- your code will depend on Jakarta Taglib, not only JSTL/JSP classes

I know how to use the class, but that doesn't mean it's an easy process for 
those not familiar with it.
