Is it reasonable to submit a patch that exposes some/all of the

This is what we had in mind (especially for the mgnl object
'MagnoliaTemplateUtilities'). Such a patch would be accepted. Just
create a jira ticked and attach your patch.
Let's just keep in mind that MagnoliaTemplateUtilities is not static.
It's currently stateless, but that *could* change (think IoC). EL
functions are supposed to be all static, so that might be a problem at
some point.
(I once found a tool/taglib that allowed dynamic wrapping of objects
(such as MagnoliaTemplateUtilities) into a taglib/functions - which
could be useful here -- can't find it right now)
