Michael Jouravlev closed STR-2992.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Problem

JSTL has powerful conditional tags and it does not throw exception when a null object is requested. JSTL should be preferred over Struts tags whenever possible.

> The idea is to for example do a notEqual logic tag where the value="null".
> By default this would be seen as a string comparison and always result in a "-1" but with this patch, it should test for an arbitrary null object reference.
> IMHO, this is more powerful.
