Alpha docs suggestions

Hey Steve,

Just had some thoughts on things that could be useful to the alpha
docs..

1) Mentioning the "control project" model for using controls (perhaps as
a 2nd controls tutorial?) -- ie, using the controls-blank template to
create a controls JAR that is then importable in multiple webapps
(WEB-INF/lib), and using this to help isolate business logic in controls
from presentation logic in the webapp proper.

2) Call out the database control as an example of a reasonably rich
control that does something useful and demonstrates how to use things
like properties, events and resource management.  Hoi, maybe you could
provide some help for Steve here?

3) Call out the usage of the database control in the AddressBookWS
sample docs/description -- ie, it's intended to demonstrate both web
services AND use of controls.
