The OpenSymphony stuff looks like they have written some custom code to
avoid the problem of the JSP taglib sending output directly to the
JSPWriter. 

I don't know all that much about writing custom taglibs - so this is
just an honest question. 
If the taglib is a black box, is it even possible to wrap it and grab
the output from that JSPWriter? 

Would it be an easier option to decompile the tag and create a Velocity
Tool instead? :-)

Cheers,
Timo
