> Currently the <putList> element in Tiles definitions configuration files and <tiles:putList> tag, in the case of a definition extending another definition, or inserting a definition with an overridden attribute, replaces the previous attribute list with new one.
> For example:
> <definition name="baseDefinition" template="/template.jsp">
>   <putList name="listAttribute">
>     <add value="First string" type="string" />
>   </putList>
> </definition>
> <definition name="extendedDefinition" extends="baseDefinition">
>   <putList name="listAttribute">
>     <add value="First string" type="string" />
>     <add value="Secondo string" type="string" />
>   </putList>
> </definition>
> As you can see, the "First string" value is duplicated.
> A new attribute, for example "clear" (that defaults to "true" for compatibility reasons) can be used to specify if the list should be cleared or not.
