Because this is already provided by the *standard* taglib and Struts should be focused on providing things the standard doesn't. Struts already has mechanisms to construct urls with parameters. Extending the standard tags to support Struts features is *much* more worthwhile than duplicating the standard tags.
I'm sympathetic with this argument, but it seems to me that as long as the non-EL tags are going to be supported, there should be no JSTL dependency in the non-EL tags.
David, would you -1 a solution along the lines that Chris Bare made, which didn't extend a JSTL tag?
