Why not to use existing params ? Anyway TilesResult has to be adjusted.

> Currently the @Result annotation for tiles can only specify a location to render, e.g.
> {code:java}
> @Action(value = "/home", results = {@Result(name = "success", location = "home", type = "tiles")})
> {code}
> What I want is to add a new attribute like this:
> {code:java}
> @Action(value = "/home", results = {@Result(name = "success", location = "home", tilesAttr={"loadcss", "/css/home.css"}, type = "tiles")})
> {code}
> The reason is to utilize wildcard tiles definition. Suppose we have the wildcard tiles definition below,
> {code:xml}
> <definition name="*.*.*" extends="{3}-layout">
>     <put-attribute name="body" value="/view/{1}/{2}.jsp"/>
>     <put-attribute name="loadcss" value=""/>
> </definition>
> {code}
> The tiles attribute 'loadcss' should be set dynamically, or specified in the annotation. Currently since the tiles plugin does not support the attribute yet, we have to do that in the tiles configuration file with <put-attribute>, that means we have to explicitly define each tiles definition without wildcard support.
