What is the purpose of this tag? There is scarce documentation and the
archive is full of complaints about it not working, but no reasons to use it
in the first place.

RE:

Afaik it allows you to rewrite a URL using the same rules as the <html:link>
tag - ie: sessionId appending, tacking on extra parameters ,choosing between
context relative and sever relative URIs, etc, all based on arcane rules
that revolve around serveral rather ambiguously named properties.
(Things like that that make me glad I dont use JSP. Of course the homebrew
rendering I use has even more arcane and silly conventions and rules - but
hey - they are *my* silly conventions and rules. mu haha ha!)
Umm if there is no reason to use it, how come there are lots of ppl finding
problems with it?

Imagine you are trying to access a gif or FLASH (yikes!) and to keep that
resource inside WEB-INF, this then becomes very helpful, heh, heh, heh, heh!

It's used to put URL's in JavaScripts to keep URL rewriting intact, for one
thing.
