Caution, a traitor in our midst!

Hi all,

Continuing my JSP/JSF/EJB journey a little more today... I thought that 
probably we should have a WM tag library for JSP to help those poor JSP 
people out.

Has somebody already done this? It should be relatively simple.

I notice Velocity has it already:

http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/veltag.html

Basically we're talking a simple tag or two to render WM content within 
a JSP page, or to render an external WM template - i.e. in JSP land 
pages could be reduced to a variant of:

<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/webmacro.tld" prefix="wm" %>

<wm:template name"/mytemplates/rendertemplate.wm" />

You'd need a couple of helpers like Velocity's, to provide access to 
scoped variables (JSP's #bean-like scoping mechanism) and wrap up the 
context.

What does the community think?

I'd love to be able to go somewhere and "use JSP" but really be using WM :)

Cheers
