> A problem with recursing macros is that scopes are not nested 
> when "velocimacro.context.localscope" is set to true.  That is, a get() on a 
> context does not percolate to a parent context if the get() returns null.  This 
> prevents accessing global variables in the context.  The desired behavior 
> (IMHO) would be for set()s to be local to the macro, and get()s to percolate up 
> to the parent if not found.
