I can attest to this bug.  The class used by Tomcat to implement
HttpServletRequest can't be accessed directly in Velocity because it
somehow resists introspection.  However, I have had exactly the same
experience with HttpServletResponse.  Geir, is there some reason why
you've wrapped request but not response?

I wonder if this is a bug in the JVM or if there is some other
explanation.
