For JSP versions < 1.3, this is about all you can do, since nesting
complete tags inside attribute values is not legal XML syntax.
In JSP 1.3, the expression language syntax from JSTL 1.0 will be supported
throughout the page (not just as arguments to JSTL tag), so you'll be able
to say something like:
<bean:message key="${key}"/>
