making a tag do do some non-standard? stuff

To those who like to deal with tags,

I have some JSP code that gets stamped allover every day, it requires 
tweaking in each situation, hence it is error prone. We decided to make it 
a tag, but got stuck on two issues:

 how do we scope the 'formBean' var in the JSP page like <jsp:useBean/>

 how do we simulate <jsp:setProperty name='formBean' property='*' />
  now I am sure we can brute force this, by using reflection and 
  iteration, but is there a method already written?

here is my JSP code.

 <jsp:useBean id='formBean' class='com.pyerotechnics.customer.ushr.ca15.intranet.tier2.beans.Form_IssueEdit'>
  <%formBean.setPageContext(pageContext);%>
  <jsp:setProperty name='formBean' property='dataSource' value='jdbc/intranetDB' />
  <jsp:setProperty name='formBean' property='*' />
  <%formBean.go();%>
 </jsp:useBean>

here is the intended tag syntax.

 <p:useFormBean 
    id='formBean' 
    class='com.pyerotechnics.customer.ushr.ca15.intranet.tier2.beans.Form_IssueEdit'
    dataSource='jdbc/intranetDB' />

If you dont mind waiting till mebbe tomorrow....I used to have a list of
links for developing tags as well as some good forum sites for obtaining
help.  I'll see if I can locate them.

There is also a taglibs mailing list available from the jakarta mailing
lists page.
