SYPECom Inc. commented on TILES-363:
------------------------------------

It seems I misunderstood your request, as I thought you were referring to my 
CONTEXT and not my REQUEST.   The context I described (500+ definitions) is 
unavoidable in our project (transitioning from legacy code, and having very 
specific functional requirements), and so that context cannot change.  The 
preparer we are using on all these tiles is required to add a kind of smart 
logic to determine how to apply (or not) a tile attribute's default value for 
each request (thus avoiding the need to add that logic code to the underlying 
JSP files).

So, my request for enhancement is really only about adding a way of specifying 
"global" preparers within a definitions file.  Much like it is possible to 
define default interceptors and global results in Struts2.

Thank you!

> CONTEXT:  one of the definitions file I am working on has 500+ definitions, 
> and all of them require the same preparer.
> REQUEST:  The XML would be much lighter and cleaner if it were possible to 
> attach a preparer to the single <tiles-definitions> element (that would apply 
> to all nested definitions) instead of to each <tiles-definition> element.
