Hmm… this is pretty interesting. I’d like to hear the opinion from the 1.4 guys on this as well.I for one dispise the ${} JSTL/whatever syntax above all else. It's just plain retarded. Now, I realize that having to put ' around strings can be seen as annoying (although I find the term "tripleqouting" to be somewhat misleading), but a way around that could be to introduce a more obvious syntax like String(my literal string). This is to me much better than the JSTL way where I have to put ${} around all variables. Introducing the JSTL syntax will lead to MORE typing, not less.
Maybe the EL parser should be more intelligent with this though. If you write: <ww:property value="foo bar"/> it is obvious that this is not a valid variable name, so the page could just return a big and obvious error message. This later approach is also backwards compatible.
