Tag Library Definition Inheritence

Just as functionality can be inherited as you subclass the tag handlers, is
it also possible to inherit the corresponding tag interface definitions in
the library file?  The TLD files are growing unnecessarily large.  Thanks.

Unfortunately, it is not.  There is no way to say that "this tag has all the
same attributes as that tag, plus a few more."
