Paul Benedict closed STR-3105.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

The idea is worth implementing a couple years ago, but not today. JSTL/JSP-EL is more powerful and more supported than the logic tags. There's no major benefit to add new enhancements to the logic tag library.

> add an optional <logic:else> tag

> Very often, I find myself having a 
>    <logic:equal  .... true
>       .... positive 
>   </logic:equal
> followed by a 
>    <logic:notEqual  .... true
>       .... negative
>    </logic:notEqual
> These are maintenance imponderables because in nested settings, you risk to loose oversight if you change one of the statements to also change the other one.
> If there were a <logic:else>
> the above statement could be reduced to 
>    <logic:equal  .... true>
>       .... positive ...
>   </logic:else>
>       .... negative ... 
>   </logic:equal>
> and only ONE condition is to be maintained
