Jelly coding question: Checking if a property was set.

[Erik Husby]

What is the preferred Jelly coding technique for the following

if (property not set by user) then
   set the property to a default value
end if
I've seen things like:

<j:set var="valueX" value="${value}X"/>
<j:if test="${valueX} == 'X'}>
   <j:set var="value" value="default value"/>
</j:if>
But that seems very awkward. The Jelly site does not seem to have any 
progamming tips only a tag reference.
