Another issue is that the emerging VSTL is useful for if's and set's
but shares JSTL's wordiness for straight output
(e.g. <c:out "${model.property}"/> instead of just $model.property).
JSTL lets you do just ${model.property} without the c:out. The
advantage to still using c:out at times is that it does XML escaping.
* modify Velocity core to support evaluation of expressions
* create new VSTL tag library in part that parallels JSTL
* add in macro capability (?)
* merge in veltag (?)
* document, create examples, website, etc.
One of the strengths of the current JSP specs are .tag files, which is
a cold fusion idea. I think it would be nice to use a similar
convention for macros. No idea how that fits though.
