Great detective work!  

About commons-lang:  I prefer to avoid dependencies where possible, to help avoid versioning hell.

> An issue affecting localization: PersistentLocale is converting locales from mixed case to all lower case, which is useless for formatting.  For example, if page 1 sets the locale like this:
> 	@Inject
> 	private PersistentLocale _persistentLocaleService;
> 	Locale locale = Locale.UK;
> 	_persistentLocaleService.set(locale);
> 	System.out.println("locale is " + locale + " - " + locale.getDisplayName());
>  
> then this is what prints:
> 	locale is en_GB - English (United Kingdom)
> But when I'm in page 2 I get the locale and find it has mutated...
> 	Locale locale = _persistentLocaleService.get();
> 	System.out.println("locale is " + locale + " - " + locale.getDisplayName());
> ...this is what prints:
> 	locale is en_gb - en_gb
> This mutated locale in page 2 is useless for formatting.  Code like the following produces default-styling instead of the styling for en_GB:
> 	_myDateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.LONG, locale);
> 	System.out.println(_myDateFormat.format(new Date()));
> It seems this has also adversely affected how supported-locales are declared (maybe in previous releases only).  See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.tapestry.user/56526/focus=56527
