I have no objections against expanding the mmbase-module format, if it does not already support this. Though I still think that tag-files implementing something for the general profit can better be distributed in the jar, because that simply is easiest to install and keep coherent. Installing them in WEB-INF/tags is mainly convenient for the maintainer of the library, but she can put them there manually anyway. Not having them there will also discourage people hacking in them, without proper anticipation. But those are just my 2 cents.
